The breadth of what can be collectively considered the tourism, travel and hospitality industries is defined in the Australia
and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC)1 as:
accommodation and food services
scenic and sightseeing transport
travel agency and tour arrangement services
event management and tourist information centre operation
amusement and other recreational activities
casino operation.
An outline of these industries is shown below in Figure 1. There is a significant degree of interrelationship between
tourism, travel and hospitality firms because of the integrated products and services produced, the close business-to-
business relationships that exist across all the industries, the common customers serviced, and the sales and service
staff employed, who often cross industries during their career. As at November 2014, these industries totaled almost
1 million employees, accounting for a little over eight per cent of the Australian workforce.2

The hospitality industry encompasses businesses that provide accommodation, food and beverages. This includes
restaurants, cafés and takeaway food, pubs and bars, hotels, motels and other accommodation, and hospitality clubs
and casinos. These businesses make up the entirety of what is classified under ‘Accommodation and Food Services’ and
‘Casino Operation’ in the ANZSIC. Key job roles, based on the Australia New Zealand Standard Classification of
Occupations (ANZSCO)3, include:
Bar Attendants and Baristas
Café Workers

The travel industry encompasses businesses acting as agents to sell travel, tour and accommodation services, as well
as businesses that mainly arrange, assemble, wholesale and retail tours. This is captured in the classification of ‘Travel
Agency and Tour Arrangement Services’ in the ANZSIC. Key job roles, based on the ANZSCO, include:
Tourism and Travel Advisers
Tourism, in the context of the Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training Package, is primarily related to tours, guiding and
visitor information services. These activities are captured in ‘Scenic and Sightseeing Transport’ and ‘Other Administrative
Services n.e.c.’. Key job roles, based on the ANZSCO, include:
Gallery, Museum and Tour Guides
Finally, event coordination and management services are classified under ‘Other Administrative Services’ in the ANZSIC.
This Training Package is relevant to event organisation and management by professional conference organisers,
exhibition and event management companies, hospitality and cultural venues. Events are diverse in nature and the skills
for coordination can apply to many types, including business events (conventions, meetings, seminars and incentive
travel), festivals and arts-based events.
Key job roles, based on the ANZSCO, include:
Conference and Event Organisers
It should be noted that the tourism industry has its own definition and framework, as defined by Australia’s Tourism
Satellite Account.4 This framework encompasses the sum of all the industries in which ‘visitors’ consume a substantial
proportion of their products or services. From this perspective, the tourism industry is mostly made up of accommodation
and food services, but it also involves a portion of industries, such as retail, transport and arts and recreation services —
of which the training needs of these industries are largely served by other Training Packages. It should also be noted that
the term 'tourism', according to Australian and international standards, is not restricted to leisure-based travel; it also
includes business and education travel, as well as any travel for any reason provided the destination is outside the
person's usual environment.5 Clearly, the SIT Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training Package is relevant to the tourism
industry, but also to the hospitality and events industries that serve the local clientele, who are not ‘visitors’.
Service Skills Australia produces an annual Environmental Scan for the tourism, travel and hospitality industry, which
identifies key and current factors impacting on the skills needs of industry. The following table outlines current industry
and workforce issues and how they have been addressed within the SIT Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training
Package.

secondary qualifications to gain additional skills for different

a tourism qualification after a travel qualification; and a
hospitality qualification after any of these qualifications.
The flexible packaging of units and qualifications reflects the fact
that people are likely to work in multiple industry job roles and
sectors and require transferable skills. They are designed to
encourage the retention of trained people within the tourism,

In the tourism, travel and hospitality industries supervisors and managers regularly undertake operational duties.
Executive chefs in restaurants, clubs and hotel environments still cook; tourism and travel managers sell and quote on
travel products on a daily basis; managers in accommodation establishments will regularly take reservations and check-
in guests.
Industry, therefore, has designed higher level qualifications that may incorporate a range of technical or operational
competencies. The requirement to achieve these units to obtain a Certificate IV, Diploma and Advanced Diploma is in
keeping with tourism, travel and hospitality job outcomes at supervisory and management levels.

Direct entry is allowed for all SIT Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training Package qualifications except the following
which have an entry requirement:

For all other qualifications, individuals may enter the qualification with no vocational experience, without prior
achievement of any units of competency and without a lower level qualification in any discipline.
The tourism, travel and hospitality industries, however, highly recommend that individuals complete the relevant
Certificate III qualification and gain vocational experience in industry before progressing to a Certificate IV qualification.
Certificate IV qualifications provide for the acquisition of more senior or supervisory skills. Industry has an expectation
that people in supervisory roles would have gained workplace experience in operational duties before coordinating the
duties of others.
Industry also strongly recommends that individuals complete the relevant Certificate III qualification and gain vocational
experience in industry before progressing to a Diploma or Advanced Diploma. These higher level qualifications provide
for the acquisition of managerial skills at an operational and strategic level. Industry has an expectation that individuals
would have gained workplace experience in operational duties before progressing to managerial roles of significant
responsibility.

of responsibility. It is not intended to indicate that an individual will gain immediate employment at that level.
Individuals who complete a qualification designed for one industry sector or job function can select qualifications for other
sectors, e.g. complete a qualification in tourism and then events or hospitality. Many skills are transferrable. They may
also progress to higher level qualifications within the same sector or for the same job function, e.g. progress from a
Certificate III in Commercial Cookery to a Certificate IV in Commercial Cookery and then to a Diploma of Hospitality.

SIT qualifications are designed to provide particular job outcomes at all AQF levels. All are regarded by the tourism,
travel and hospitality industry as ‘pathway or preparatory’ study for other qualifications. For example, SIT20316
Certificate II in Hospitality provides for a variety of job outcomes that include bar attendant, porter and room attendant.
Employers expect graduates with this qualification, and all SIT qualifications, to be ready to work and to be competent in
the required skills. Delivery to secondary school students, therefore, must comply – in the same way as any other
delivery – with the requirements outlined in the Training Package, including those for environments, equipment and
assessors.
The following SIT Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training Package qualifications are suitable for delivery to secondary
school students:
SIT10116 Certificate I in Tourism (Australian Indigenous Culture)
SIT10216 Certificate I in Hospitality
SIT20116 Certificate II in Tourism
SIT20216 Certificate II in Holiday Parks and Resorts
SIT20316 Certificate II in Hospitality
SIT20416 Certificate II in Kitchen Operations
SIT20516 Certificate II in Asian Cookery.
Part-time school-based apprenticeships and traineeships are delivered by RTOs in conjunction with on-the-job training
provided by employers. This would be appropriate provided the requirements for the above qualifications can be met
alongside the requirements for completion of the Senior Secondary Certificate of Education, e.g. HSC, VCE, WACE, etc.
Industry does not support the delivery of qualifications above Certificate II level to secondary school students.
All SIT Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training Package qualifications from Certificate II through to Advanced Diploma
are suitable for an Australian Apprenticeship pathway:
It is important that RTOs take meaningful, transparent and reasonable steps to consult, consider and implement
reasonable adjustments for learners with a disability.
Under the Disability Standards for Education 2005, providers must make reasonable adjustments for people with a
disability to the maximum extent that those adjustments do not cause that provider unjustifiable hardship. While
‘reasonable adjustment’ and ‘unjustifiable hardship’ are different concepts and involve different considerations, they both
seek to strike a balance between the interests of providers and the interests of learners with and without disability.
Page 92 of 401
SIT TOURISM, TRAVEL AND HOSPITALITY TRAINING PACKAGE
COMPANION VOLUME IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE
An adjustment is any measure or action that a learner requires because of their disability, and which has the effect of
assisting the learner to access and participate in education and training on the same basis as learners without disability.
An adjustment is reasonable if it achieves this purpose while taking into account factors such as the nature of the
learner’s disability, the views of the learner, the potential effect of the adjustment on the learner and others who might be
affected, and the costs and benefits of making the adjustment.
A provider is also entitled to maintain the academic integrity of a course or program and to consider the requirements or
components that are inherent or essential to its nature when assessing whether an adjustment is reasonable. There may
be more than one adjustment that is reasonable in a given set of circumstances; providers are required to make
adjustments that are reasonable and that do not cause them unjustifiable hardship.
It is important that providers understand that the content of the unit cannot be changed as this describes a workplace
outcome. For example, the workplace requires an individual to know the key features of food and beverage items on the
menu in order to provide information to customers when undertaking SITHFAB007 Serve food and beverage.
The inherent requirements of the actual workplace performance described by the unit of competency must inform the
decision about what adjustment is reasonable. That same unit requires individuals to record customer orders and write
clear and precise notes on special requests. Competency could not be solely assessed by asking oral questions about
what should be included; the learner would need to be able to write.

2.7 Health and safety implications for the tourism, travel and hospitality industries
Work in the tourism, travel and hospitality industry is diverse and involves varied environments and equipment. Particular
risks to health and safety are as follows.
For frontline service personnel in hotels, pubs, taverns and clubs, injury from:
violent robberies
aggressive or intoxicated customers.
For those working in kitchens, injury and illness from:
using hot stoves, ovens, deep fryers and dishwashers (burns)
using knives and slicing machines (cuts and abrasions)
slips, trips and falls from wet floors
lifting, shifting and moving heavy pots, pans, stock and kitchen waste
inhaling and ingesting, and skin and eye contact with, hazardous cleaning substances
exposure to hot and cold environments, e.g. cool rooms.
For those working in bars and cellars, injury and illness from:
using glass-washers (burns)
using knives (cuts and abrasions)
slips, trips and falls from wet floors
lifting, shifting and moving heavy stock and bar waste
inhaling and ingesting, and skin and eye contact with, hazardous cleaning substances
inert gases and gas leaks in confined spaces.
For those working in grounds and facility maintenance, injury or illness from:
use of power tools and heavy mechanical equipment (burns, cuts, abrasions and electric shock)
lifting, shifting and moving heavy items and waste
inhaling and ingesting, and skin and eye contact with, hazardous chemicals and cleaning substances
exposure to extreme heat or cold.
Page 94 of 401
SIT TOURISM, TRAVEL AND HOSPITALITY TRAINING PACKAGE
COMPANION VOLUME IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE
For those working in tourism delivery (attractions, guiding, tour operations), injury or illness from:
ride, vehicle, aircraft or vessel accidents
accidents associated with outdoor recreation equipment or activities
lifting, shifting and moving heavy items, such as luggage and camping equipment
exposure to extreme heat and cold, storms, floods and bushfires
wild animals and local wildlife.
Learners in the workplace or simulated environment are equally exposed to these risks. These risks can be managed
through:
following procedures to manage risks
providing suitable personal protective equipment
work health and safety induction and training
involving learners in hazard identification and risk assessment practices
close supervision by trainers, assessors, workplace supervisors and managers.
Each qualification in the SIT Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training Package contains work health and safety unit(s) of
competency requiring learners to achieve skills and knowledge to participate in, implement or manage safe work
practices as appropriate to the qualification and job outcome. It is recommended that RTOs integrate the acquisition of
these workplace skills and knowledge into daily training and assessment activities.
The SIT Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training Package includes the following work health and safety (WHS) units of
competency:
SITXWHS001 Participate in safe work practices
SITXWHS002 Identify hazards, assess and control safety risks
SITXWHS003 Implement and monitor work health and safety practices
SITXWHS004 Establish and maintain a work health and safety system.

2.10 Simulation
Simulation, set up for the purpose of assessment, involves two components:
simulated environments
simulated activities.
Some SIT units require a defined number of “service periods” as a part of the performance evidence in the assessment
requirements. It is noted that whether the assessment takes place in a workplace or a simulated environment, a service
period should be defined by the context of the work skill being assessed. Service periods do not necessarily align with
shift periods worked.
For example a “service period” in a hospitality environment such as a restaurant may be a breakfast service, lunch
service or dinner service. A “shift” worked in a restaurant may incorporate one or more of these service periods. A
learner may work a shift that incorporates a breakfast service and a lunch service and although this is one “shift” worked,
it may be used for two service periods for the purpose of assessment. However, the two service periods must be clearly
defined and the start/set-up and finish/close of each service period must be clearly identified.
Because assessment in the workplace is not always possible, each SIT unit of competency allows assessment to be
conducted in a simulated environment. Whenever a simulated assessment is conducted it is essential that the
environment is as realistic as possible. Assessment must be conducted in the specified environment using the equipment
and resources mandated in the Assessment Conditions field of the Assessment Requirements. This involves:
using the appropriate environment, for example an operational touring environment, an operational
accommodation environment, an operational commercial kitchen, or an operational events context
providing current equipment and technology: that which is typically available in a modern tourism, travel or
hospitality business
providing a diverse, comprehensive and commercially realistic range of consumable resources or stock
providing workplace documents currently used in industry: those that are typically available in a tourism, travel
or hospitality business, including items such as policies, procedures, product manuals, plans, and report
templates
providing sufficient numbers of equipment and resources to service the assessment needs of each learner;
sharing and “taking turns” using inadequate numbers leads to down-time for tasks and does not allow learners
to demonstrate their capacity to work within commercial speed, timing and productivity timeframes
ensuring that other required people are present, e.g. customers or team members.
The tourism, travel and hospitality industries highly value graduates who are ready to work in their businesses because
they have been exposed to industry conditions. Whenever a simulated assessment activity is conducted it is essential
that industry-relevant conditions are provided; those as close to a real work situation as possible.
This can involve:
providing sufficient customer traffic that allows:
o prioritisation of tasks so that customers are served effectively in a logical sequence

COMPANION VOLUME IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE

SIT TOURISM, TRAVEL AND HOSPITALITY TRAINING PACKAGE
COMPANION VOLUME IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE
have worked in industry for at least three years where they have applied the skills and knowledge of this unit of
competency.
Currency of vocational competence, as required by the Standards for Registered Training Organisations, is crucial to the
success of assessment outcomes for the tourism, travel and hospitality industries. It ensures that those involved in
assessment processes have current industry knowledge, expertise in current operational practice, and knowledge of
what workplace equipment is currently used so that assessments reflect up-to-date workplace practice.
In some cases RTOs may elect to use a collaborative approach to assessment, in order to meet the requirements for
industry skills and knowledge and training and assessment competencies required under the assessor requirements.
Co-assessment allows for an individual who meets the three year industry experience requirement found in some SIT
units to assess in collaboration with an individual who holds the necessary training and assessment qualifications and
competencies under the Standards for Registered Training Organisations. Co-assessment requires both the industry
party and the assessor party to work together to collect the evidence to determine competence. The final determination
of competence is made by the qualified assessor, who determines that the evidence collected is valid and sufficient to
meet the assessment requirement.
Co-assessment may involve the parties gathering the evidence in a face-to-face environment, for example when a
learner is completing mandated service periods required in the performance evidence of a unit of competency, or it may
involve one party sending evidence to the other for consideration.
It is important, when considering a co-assessment model, that the assessment tools used are explicit in terms of the
requirements for evidence and that these requirements are explained in detail to those using them to gather the evidence
of competence.
