MARAM accredited training

Find the latest news and information about the MARAM accredited training for Quarter 1 2023-24.

What is MARAM accredited training?

The Centre for Workforce Excellence (CWE) in the Department of Families, Fairness, and Housing (DFFH) is working in partnership with the Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions (DJSIR) to develop vocational education and training (VET) courses in family violence.

The training aims to build the knowledge, skills, and capabilities of existing and future workforces to respond to and contribute to the prevention of family violence. These courses are the first accredited training courses to be directly based on the Family Violence MARAM Framework.

Through these courses, individuals will be able to access MARAM aligned, accredited family violence training through registered training organisations (RTOs), TAFEs and dual sector universities, either during their studies or before they enter the workforce as part of their pre-service education and training.

What has been achieved so far?

New teaching and learning resources for VU22733 have been developed to complement course delivery. These include additional case studies, new assessments, and facilitator and learner guides for TAFEs and RTOs.

In May 2022, redevelopment of the Course in Intermediate Risk Assessment and Management of Family Violence Risk (22561VIC) commenced to reflect new MARAM practice guidance relating to working with adults using violence. The course has been re-accredited by the Victorian Registration and Qualifictations Authority (VRQA) with the revised title Course in Intermediate Risk Assessment and Management of Family Violence (22625VIC). It was made available for delivery to TAFEs and RTOs from 1 July 2023.

VRQA accredited the Course in Contributing to the Prevention of Family Violence and Violence Against Women (22621VIC), available for delivery since May 2023.
