This challenge test consists of a written knowledge test and is followed by a practical test to demonstrate competence against the OHS assessment instrument.

We can provide support in some areas. Where we cannot, we will provide direction to other agencies who may be able to assist.
What will the participant receive at the conclusion of the course?
Upon successful completion of the course you will be issued with a photocopy of the completed assessment summary report together with a license/certification application form and a Statement of Attainment for the unit of competency completed.
