Key terms and concepts

The Training activity (NAT00120) file contains a record for each unit of competency or module undertaken by a client at a training organisation’s delivery location during the collection period.

File relationships

For each unique combination of Training organisation identifier and Training organisation delivery
location identifier in the Training activity (NAT00120) file there must be one corresponding record
in the:
Training organisation delivery location (NAT00020) file.
For each unique Program identifier in the Training activity (NAT00120) file there must be one
corresponding record in the:
Program (NAT00030) or (NAT00030A) file.

For each unique Subject identifier in the Training activity (NAT00120) file there must be one
corresponding record in the:
Subject (NAT00060) file.
For each unique Client identifier in the Training activity (NAT00120) file there must be one
corresponding record in the:
Client (NAT00080) file.
If there is no training activity and therefore no Training organisation delivery location (NAT00020)
file or Subject (NAT00060) file, then the Training activity (NAT00120) file is not required.
