Course Description

This competency involves developing a delivery plan that is used by the trainer or facilitator to guide and manage delivery to a group. 

It encompasses interpreting the learning environment and delivery requirements for the identified group of learners, developing session plans, and preparing and organising the resources required.

The delivery plan is based on a documented learning program and provides a context specific plan for implementation.

The competency of designing and developing learning programs is separately addressed in our other course ‘Design and develop learning programs’ or in our full ‘Train the Trainer’ and ‘TAE40110/16 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment’ courses.

In some situations the learning program and delivery plan may be developed concurrently while in other circumstances the delivery plan is developed separately. Where the application is concurrent co-learning and/or co-assessment of these two units is recommended.

The planning and organising of group delivery is essential to the effective conduct of group delivery/facilitation which is also addressed as a unit of competency in ‘TAADEL402B Facilitate group-based learning’, which we also offer as part of the TAE40110/16 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment’. 


While these two units are discrete, co-learning and assessment are strongly recommended. Both units are written from the perspective of a face-to-face delivery mode in a learning context such as a training room, classroom, meeting room, community setting or any location a group can access which is safe, relevant and conducive to learning.

The competency specified in this course is typically required by trainers/facilitators, vocational education and training teachers and training consultants.
