Final Companion Volume Implementation Guide and Sub-Sector-Specific Guidance Completed and Published

Project Overview

SaCSA is refreshing the Companion Volume Implementation Guide (CVIG) for the Creative Arts and Culture (CUA) Training Package to address long-standing usability and accessibility issues.

The project responds to feedback from training providers and industry that clearer, more tailored guidance is needed to support consistent implementation of CUA qualifications, skill sets and units of competency.

The refreshed guidance will better reflect current industry practice and support training providers to confidently navigate recent and future changes to CUA training products.

This work is being delivered as part of the approved activity Supporting Implementation through the CUA Companion Volume Implementation Guide (CVIG).
