Maitrio aligns the pathway: it translates employer requirements into the competency framework, coordinates the partners and tracks readiness against the ramp plan.
Maitrio does not award qualifications or authorise employees. Qualifications follow each institution's framework, and only the employer can authorise someone to work independently.
