Template Licence

The licence terms that apply to templates, policy suites and documents supplied by CAQA Legal.

Digital products, templates, resources, publications, SCORM files, policy documents and other downloadable materials supplied by CAQA Legal are licensed, not sold outright, unless expressly stated otherwise. The licence allows the purchaser to use the material internally for the permitted purpose stated at the time of purchase. The purchaser must not resell, redistribute, publicly publish, upload to third-party libraries, remove copyright notices or provide access to unrelated organisations without written permission.

This Template Licence applies to the agreement templates, policy suites, template libraries, registers and other documents supplied by CAQA Legal to education providers, businesses and government teams. Supplied templates may be used and contextualised internally by your organisation, its staff and campuses for the purpose for which they were provided; they must not be resold, shared publicly, contributed to shared template banks or passed to third parties or unrelated entities without our written permission. No payments are taken through this website—templates and document services are scoped, quoted and invoiced under a written engagement, and the licence position for a specific engagement is confirmed at that time. Questions about permitted use, additional licences or permission requests can be sent to info@caqa.com.au, raised by phone on 1800 266 160 or lodged through our contact page. The End User Licence Agreement below, entered into with Career Calling International Pty Ltd (ABN 53 162 651 238), sets out the full licence terms that apply to supplied resources.

5. Purchaser changes to Resources

(a) The Resources are not intended or designed to be an “off-the-shelf” resource automatically suitable for the Purchaser’s use in its business.

6. Quality assurance and replacement of units of competency

(a) CCI is not responsible for the outcome of any audit of the Purchaser or for any other action or inaction of any third party such as ASQA. However, the Price includes a quality assurance guarantee provided by CCI on the following terms:
(i) If the Resources in the form provided by CCI are found in an audit not to comply with any regulatory requirements, CCI will provide assistance free of charge in order to make the Resources compliant with the auditor's requirements for the purposes of that audit.
(ii) This assistance only applies to audits conducted by an official registered body such as ASQA.
(iii) If the Resources are non-complaint because of Contexualisations or other modifications made by or on behalf of the Purchaser, this quality assurance guarantee does not apply and CCI will charge for rectification assistance at its normal rates.
(iv) To claim on this quality assurance guarantee the Purchaser must provide CCI (details above) with a copy of the audit report that found the Resources to be non-compliant (at the Purchaser's expense), as soon as possible after the audit to allow CCI sufficient time to provide rectification assistance. CCI needs a minimum of 15 Business Days' notice to complete a rectification update to the non-compliant Resources. If the Purchaser fails to allow CCI sufficient time to provide rectification assistance in accordance with this clause, this quality assurance guarantee will no longer apply.
(v) ASQA may or may not provide an opportunity for rectification if non-compliance is identified in the audit. Unless there is a rectification opportunity after the audit, CCI cannot offer this quality assurance guarantee.
(b) The benefits of this quality assurance guarantee are in addition to other rights and remedies of the Purchaser under laws relation to the Resources.
(c) Our goods (Resources) come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
(d) If a unit of competency contained in the Resources is superseded and replaced on the national register of vocational education and training (https://training.gov.au/) CCI will replace that unit of competency free of charge with the replacement unit.
(e) Nothing in clause 6 (d) obliges CCI to provide any other updates or replacements of any of the Resources free of charge. If the Purchaser requests CCI, and CCI agrees, to provide any other update or replacement of any of the Resources, this will be charged for at CCI's normal rates.

7. Property

(a) All Intellectual Property Rights in all Resources are the property of CCI. The Purchaser is not granted any interest in the Resources apart from those specifically granted in this Agreement.

(b) If the whole or any part of a provision of this Agreement is void, unenforceable or illegal in a jurisdiction, it is severed for that jurisdiction. The remainder of this Agreement will have full force and effect and the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction is not affected. This clause has no effect if the severance alters the basic nature of this Agreement or is contrary to public policy.
(c) Any waiver by a party in respect of any breach of this Agreement will not be deemed to be a waiver in respect of any other breach or of any subsequent breach.
(d) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties in relation to its subject matter and supersedes all communications, negotiations, arrangements and agreements, whether oral or written, between the parties.
