There is little doubt that innovation is one of the cornerstones of the Vocational Education & Training (VET) system. In fact, our industries framework, the AQTF standards constantly emphasise the importance of continuous improvement as a registered training organisation (RTO), so developing innovation skills in learners for any trainer or facilitator should not only be a consideration, but actually a priority in helping them to continue their professional development.
On this note, the Innovation and Business Skills Council (IBSA) have recently released a free document, "Developing Innovation Skills: A guide for trainers and assessors to foster the innovation skills of learners through professional practice". If you are a trainer or facilitator I would recommend you get yourself a copy.
It's not often you get information like this for free! You can download your copy directly from the IBSA website FREE, or buy a copy for 'next to nothing' here >>> http://www.ibsa.org.au/products-and-services/tabid/57/txtSearch/INN01/List/0/productid/1764/Default.aspx?SortField=DateCreated+DESC%2cProductName
