The UAN Streamlining Trial will be implemented in two stages:
- Stage One will commence from 30 October 2023

Training providers are advised to watch the short online presentation for information on timelines, trial structure, stages, getting ready, getting help, giving feedback, evaluation and what happens after the trial.
What is UAN?
To ensure students get the support they need to successfully complete their subsidised training, an upfront assessment of need (UAN) process is to be undertaken before they commence training.
The UAN Process
The UAN process includes three distinct assessments that are of equal importance. Training providers must assess a learner’s:
- Suitability to ensure the course and the learner are a good fit for each other.
- Support needs to ensure these are planned for early and documented in their training plan.
- Literacy and numeracy capabilities to ensure the learner has access to free foundation skills training to support a successful training outcome.
To get started, read the Process Map and UAN Guidelines.
UAN with VETRO for School Students
The VET Readiness Orientation (VETRO) is subset of the UAN process and used for all school students seeking access to subsidised training. There are specific differences between VETRO for school students and the UAN, which is used for adults.
