IN TRANSITION PROGRAM Clause Samples
The "IN TRANSITION PROGRAM" clause defines the procedures and responsibilities that apply when transitioning from one service provider or operational phase to another. Typically, this clause outlines the steps, timelines, and deliverables required to ensure a smooth handover, such as the transfer of data, knowledge, or assets, and may specify the support the outgoing party must provide during the transition period. Its core function is to minimize disruption and ensure continuity of operations by clearly delineating the transition process and expectations for all parties involved.
IN TRANSITION PROGRAM. The Victorian Government supports retrenched workers by providing individuals with the opportunity to build on their current skills or retrain through the Workers in Transition program (WiTP). The program aims to efficiently transition workers facing retrenchment to alternative employment with minimal disruption to economic participation through the application of appropriate training strategies.

Retrenched individuals taking part in the program are provided with a WiTP letter from the Department which refers them to the RTO.

The RTO must: Screen referred individuals to determine the vocational interests of the student; Provide career advice to referred individuals; Assess referred individuals’ eligibility for a government subsidised training place under the Victorian Training Guarantee; and Enrol referred individuals in accordance with the requirements set out in the Guidelines about Determining Student Eligibility and Supporting Evidence. Where the RTO (Approved RPL Provider List RTOs only) delivers government subsidised recognition of prior learning (RPL) to referred individuals, the RTO agrees to: facilitate new skills acquisition by using RPL in conjunction with training.
