When must new enrolments into AHCOHS401A stop?

New enrolments are not permitted from 27 June 2017 — one year from the date the replacement was included on the National Register (s 14(1)(a)(i) of the National VET Regulator (Compliance Standards for NVR RTOs and Fit and Proper Person Requirements) Instrument 2025 (F2025L00355, in force 1 July 2025)), or from a later date if ASQA has approved otherwise for your organisation.

Is there a deadline for learners already enrolled in AHCOHS401A?

Learners already enrolled have no fixed deadline: they complete the product and are issued their AQF certification, or transfer to the replacement, in a timely manner (ASQA guidance, read live 25 August 2026).

Where the register points next

Each step below is one supersession training.gov.au publishes between two products. The label on the rail is the equivalence the register declares for that step — not our reading of it.

What the register says changed

These are the mapping notes training.gov.au attaches to each supersession, quoted as the register writes them. They are the only public record of what actually changed between two versions.

Is AHCOHS401A on your scope?

This page is the register's record of one product. What it cannot tell you is whether AHCOHS401A sits on your own scope today, or what else on that scope has moved without anyone noticing. Enter your RTO number and we read every product on your live scope against training.gov.au and tell you which ones are superseded and which replacements the register flags not equivalent.

Whether a supersession requires anything of you, and what, sits with you and your regulator. This page maps what the register records; it does not make that judgement. If the difference between an equivalent and a non-equivalent replacement is the question, we wrote it up in equivalent vs not equivalent.

Where AHCOHS401A is used

training.gov.au lists AHCOHS401A inside 23 training products, none of them current. Every one of them is below, with the register's own core or elective flag for AHCOHS401A in that product.

Products no longer current 23 listed

The register still records AHCOHS401A inside these, but it no longer recommends them as current. They are here because a scope history or an old enrolment can still point at them.
