A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Contact Armin Design Studios
What exactly is New Trainer Planner?+

A practical planning membership for Australian VET trainers and assessors. It combines a digital planner with a 176-page A4 printable companion. It helps you plan delivery, organise follow-ups, record CPD and reflect on your practice.

Do I need to start in January?+

Start any time. The printable planner is undated, and the digital planner lets you choose your dates. The 90-day roadmap uses a suggested sequence that you can adapt with your RTO or supervisor.

What does the subscription include?+

Access to the online planner while your membership is active, the current printable planner, and exports of your own planning entries. It is a self-guided tool; it does not include coaching, assessment services or a promise of new content every month.

Can I print it or use a tablet?+

Yes. Download the A4 PDF and print the pages you need. You can also annotate it in a PDF annotation app on your tablet. The PDF itself is not a fillable form; the online planner provides editable fields.

Is this an accredited course or compliance tool?+

It is a personal planning resource, not an accredited course, an assessment instrument or a compliance guarantee. Follow your RTO’s approved systems, policies and the requirements that apply to your role.

How do renewals and cancellation work?+

Choose monthly or annual recurring billing in Australian dollars. Once payments open, you can manage or cancel future renewals through the billing portal. Online access continues through your paid period. PDF copies and exports you have downloaded remain yours for personal use.
