Breaking Down the New Standards – What RTOs Need to Know with Maciek Fibrich

RTO Superhero 🎙️ Empowering RTOs to Thrive!

In this episode of the RTO Superhero Podcast, host Angela Connell-Richards is joined for the first time by Maciek Fibrich, who will be a regular guest throughout the year as they unpack the Revised Standards for RTOs.

Together, they break down what RTOs need to know right now about the compliance changes, including:
📜 What’s changing (and what’s not)? The real impact of the new standards on policies, procedures, and day-to-day operations.
🎓 The updated credential policy—why the TAE qualification requirements are shifting and what it means for trainers.
🔄 Self-assurance & continuous improvement—how RTOs can move away from compliance being a "burden" and create a culture of quality.
🛠 Audit expectations—how ASQA’s approach is evolving and what RTOs should be prepared for in their next audit.
🤖 Leveraging technology & AI—how RTOs can use automation and digital tools to simplify compliance and improve efficiency.

Angela and Maciek bring their expert insights, strong opinions, and plenty of passion to this conversation—helping RTOs cut through the confusion and focus on what really matters.
