If you want to offer "certificates", consider setting up a Registered Training Organisation. Then you can offer Cert I, Cert II, etc course, but you do need Cert IV qualified trainers.
You got any links to explanation of how this process works? How does the first Cert IV get created in a new subject?
AFAIUI under the new national training/qualification format basically any "registered training organisation" can provide "certificates".
These "certificates" have to be training in certain skills as laid down in the standards.
The courses need to be delivered by a qualified trainer, which is basically you need a Certificate IV in Assessment and Workplace Training, no matter what your other qualifications/industry experience. It is just a piece of paper in Adult training as opposed to schools
So, if you can set up an RTO and have CIV trainers, then your certificates are as good as anyone elses.
I think the bug bear is the RTO steps. Of course, in involves a hefty insurance package as well.
