Compliance engine for Australian RTOs

Helping your RTO

Move from reactive compliance to proactive. Crest finds what an auditor would find, months before they arrive, so your team can spend its time growing the RTO instead of defending it.

CHC33021 lists a unit that was superseded on the national register in March.

What to do

Update the strategy to the current unit and confirm it sits on your scope, then run it again.

The problem

Compliance breaks quietly.

Most registered training organisations discover a gap when a regulator asks for evidence, not before.

Why Crest

Proactive beats reactive.

Every compliance problem is cheaper the earlier you find it. Crest moves the finding forward by months.

01

You can afford to check everything

Consultants charge per engagement, so RTOs sample a few files and hope the rest hold. Crest costs the same whether you check one qualification or all of them.

02

Minutes, not weeks

When a review takes minutes you run it before you need it rather than after someone asks. Speed is what turns compliance from a project into a habit.

03

It knows what changed

Your scope is checked against the national register on every run. A superseded unit surfaces the day it matters, not at your next audit.

04

It tells you what it did not check

Every report states its own limits. Anything that claims to have covered everything is the one you cannot safely hand to an auditor.

04 · Coverage

05 · Process

How it works

1

Book a demo

Bring one trainer file. We run it live and you see the actual report.

2

We set you up

Send your documents once. We take care of the rest, including a full first review of everything you hold.

3

Nothing goes stale

Your whole scope stays under review, so a problem surfaces the month it appears instead of at your next audit.

4

Fix and re-run

Close the finding, run it again, watch it turn green. Then it starts over.

06 · The numbers

How these numbers are calculated

We would rather show our working than quote a number you cannot check.

  • Consultant rate: A$175 per hour. Australian RTO consultants publicly quote A$100 to A$250 per hour. We use the midpoint.
  • Hours per unit of work. Seven hours for a training and assessment strategy reviewed against live scope, three hours per trainer file, ten hours for a website compliance audit. One cycle per year.
  • In-house officer: A$90,000 salary. The advertised average for an RTO Compliance Officer in Australia, plus 25% for superannuation, payroll tax, workers compensation and overhead.
  • Crest price. Our published band for the scope you selected. Not an estimate.

Consultant and in-house figures cover a single annual review cycle. Crest runs continuously, so the comparison understates the difference in coverage rather than overstating it.
