Update to Entertainment Industry Curriculum Framework Stage 6 Syllabus

The updated syllabus includes a code change for the Certificate III in Live Production and Technical Services qualification (CUA30425), updated units of competency, and minor changes to examinable HSC Content. The first HSC exam based on the updated syllabus will be in 2027.
The Entertainment Industry record of changes provides further detail and a summary of changes.
Students completing in 2026 the Entertainment Industry 240-hour course they commenced in 2025, and students who want to undertake the Entertainment Industry 240- hour course in one year in 2026, will complete the course as outlined in the ‘old’ syllabus but can access the new CUA30425 qualification.
Any student wanting to sit the 2026 HSC exam must complete the 240-hour course from the ‘old’ syllabus.
Schools should consult with their school system/sector and/or registered training organisation (RTO) regarding delivery of courses from this Framework for all Entertainment Industry students in 2026.
