A clear path from your current system to aXcelerate

Staying put feels safer than migrating, until it isn’t. Here’s how we keep your move supported at every step.

  1. Step 1: Start with your requirements

    We learn how your RTO delivers training, what you report and who you report to, then show you how aXcelerate supports it.

  2. Step 2: Agree what moves across

    A data audit at the start confirms exactly what will and won’t migrate, so there are no surprises later.

  3. Step 3: Check your data before go-live

    Our migration specialists import your data into a staging account first. You review it, then it moves into your live account.

  4. Step 4: Get your team ready

    Implementation specialists guide your setup, training and go-live, with dedicated training for your staff.

  5. Step 5: Keep going with local support

    After go-live, our Australia-based support team is there when you need them.

Frequently asked questions

When is a good time to switch student management systems?

Many RTOs switch at the start of a reporting year, so a full year of AVETMISS data sits in one system. We’ll talk through the right timing for your RTO.

Should we switch while VET Data Streamlining is under way?

Yes, switching during the transition can work in your favour. Under the new VET Information Standard, data validation and submission happen in your SMS, so the system you choose now is the one that will carry you through the change. aXcelerate has been closely involved in VET Data Streamlining and is aligning its system with the new standard. You can keep reporting AVETMISS as usual while the sector transitions, and we’ll keep you informed through proactive customer communications.

How does data migration work?

We agree the scope with you upfront, so you know exactly what will and won’t move across. Our migration specialists then import your data into a staging account first. You check it there, and once you’ve confirmed it’s correct, we move it into your live account. That way your team can review your data before go-live.

How does aXcelerate protect student data?

aXcelerate holds ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications and is TPES-certified. Your data is hosted onshore on AWS, and we run third-party penetration testing every year. Within your account, role-based permissions control what each staff member can see and do, and audit logs show who changed what. We also maintain a five-minute recovery point objective and 99.9% uptime.

How long does implementation take?

It depends on your RTO: how much data you’re bringing across, how you deliver training and what you report. During scoping, we map out a timeline with you that covers data migration, setup, dedicated staff training and go-live, so you know what to expect before you start. Our implementation specialists guide your team through each step.
