Advertising Policy

RR+R will observe the requirements for Ethical Marketing and Advertising, and the Use of National and State Logos included in the AQTF Standards.

Any advertising, promotional or informative materials will be designed to help convey our image as the leading trainer in the fields of risk management, safety, emergency response, and rescue and our commitment to the highest ethical and professional standards.

They will fully and accurately describe our courses, programs and services, the conditions for participation in them, and their outcomes. All advertising will comply with the AQTF Standards and the NSW Anti-Discrimination Act.

All advertising and promotional materials must be approved by the Managing Director prior to production and release.

We will obtain prior written permission from any person or organisation to use marketing or advertising material, which refers to that person, or organisation, and will abide by any conditions of that permission.

Use of National and State Logos

RR+R will use the ‘Nationally Recognised Training’ logo on all Qualifications and Statements of Attainment within our scope of registration, and in accordance with the Nationally Recognised Training Logo Specifications, and will only use it in advertisements, which comply with those
requirements.

The VETAB logo will only be used in accordance with the conditions governing its use and only in relation to training within our scope of registration:

We will advertise the availability of AQF Qualifications and accredited courses only if they are included on our scope of registration.

Marketing Policy

All course advertising and promotion will accurately reflect the course content and level. There will be no intentional vague, misleading or ambiguous statements made about courses, trainers, other providers, the organisation or any other matter that falsely enhances Risk, Response and Rescue programs or services.

VET Courses / VETAB guidelines

These guidelines apply to promotional and marketing items in press, radio and television, on Internet or any other media and for items such as information brochures, stationery and recruiting agent's materials.

• Advertising of training providers and courses must not be misleading, vague or ambiguous.
• RR+R will only market AQF qualifications and Statement of Attainment within our scope of registration.
• 'VETAB accredited" will not be used when advertising unaccredited courses.

Only modules separately accredited as "Training Programs" and "Courses in" will be advertised as courses in their own right.

• Advertisements will list the accrediting body for each course not accredited by VETAB.
• RR+R will not claim it is about to be approved or that courses are shortly to be accredited.

• RR+R will not claim they are registered, approved or endorsed in any way unless the advertisement specifies the name of the endorsing body.
• RR+R will quote provider and course names exactly as they are on the Registration or Accreditation Certificate.
• Advertisements will not contain references to competing providers or the courses they conduct.
• If RR+R becomes registered in other states and runs courses in NSW it may only use the endorsement of the original registering body and/or the ANTA nationally recognised logo.
