Hairdressing Continuous Improvement

The SIH11 Hairdressing Training Package was endorsed by the former National Quality Council on 23 June 2011. As part of SSA’s process for continuous improvement, the Training Package will undergo review in 2014 to ensure that content reflects current industry practices and meets the new Standards for Training Packages.The continuous improvement of this Training Package provides the opportunity for industry, training organisations, employers and employees to provide input into the current and future skills and knowledge requirements of the Hairdressing industry.

SSA will consult with a number of industry experts, practitioners, trainers and business owners to gather information. This information, along with key themes from the Hairdressing Environmental Scan, will guide the continuous improvement of the Hairdressing Training Package. 

Project Overview – Update of SIH70111

Service Skills Australia are developing Version 2 of the SIH11 Hairdressing Training Package to reflect the Australian Qualifications Framework, Second Edition that was released in January 2013. The key change in this Edition is the revised specifications for the Graduate Certificate and Graduate Diploma levels and subsequent removal of the Vocational Graduate Certificate Diploma levels.

SSA will undertake the review and submit required updates in 2013. The proposed timeline is to commence now and submit by 4 July 2013 for endorsement at the 15 August 2013 meeting of the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC).

 

Extent of Changed Required

As part of SSA’s process of Continuous Improvement, this qualification will be updated to align to the current terminology and AQF level. The qualification will change from SIH70111 Vocational Graduate Certificate in Hairdressing Creative Leadership to SIH80113 Graduate Certificate in Hairdressing Creative Leadership.
