CHC34015 Certificate III in Active Volunteering
The Certificate III in Active Volunteering is a nationally recognised qualification which reflects the role of people working in a volunteer capacity across a range of industries and organisations in a variety of contexts. At this level, work takes place under the direction of others and supervision may be direct or indirect. Volunteers may also be required to lead volunteer teams and have limited responsibility for the output of others within a project or event.
To achieve this qualification, the candidate must have completed at least 20 hours of volunteer work and organisations may require volunteers to undergo relevant background checks.
Typical Scouting Pathway
Experiences and learning received through participation in Scouting, aligns closely to the requirements of Certificate III in Active Volunteering. Any member of Scouts Australia who has sufficient evidence can apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). Typical pathways that enables collection of valid evidence are;
-
- Complete at least 20 hours of volunteer work.
- Youth members actively participate in the youth program. Venturer Scouts complete the Queen’s Scout Award or Rover Scouts complete Milestone 2 as a minimum requirement.
- Adult members actively participate supporting the youth program and complete Wood Badge Basic Level Training.
After completing your enrolment with the Scouts Australia Institute of Training (SAIT), an assessor will be assigned to you and they will assess your evidence. They may ask for further evidence or have a conversation with you to gather further information about your experiences. After successfully completing your Recognition of Prior Learning assessment, you will receive a Certificate III in Active Volunteering (CHC34015).
