This course is competency-based. Students have assessments to complete externally in the training room, providing evidence that they have understood the training and applied it to the workplace. This requirement means that it is not possible to complete all the assessment requirements during the face-to-face training.
Students are required to complete assessment tasks for each module which typically include:
Students have up to 12 months to submit their assessments. Please be aware that this is a maximum time frame, and it is greatly dependent on the student’s current job role and pre-existing skills and abilities.
Students can submit their assessments at any time after attending the face-to-face component. The actual time for completion varies between students.
The volume of learning for a Certificate IV qualification is typically six months to two years.
Trainwest provide the following resources:

We strongly recommend that students familiarise themselves with the YouTube videos provided in the Pre-existing Skills and Knowledge Checklist prior to attending the course.
Trainwest provides ongoing support to students throughout the course via email and telephone.
We offer post-course support workshops at no additional charge. This provides students with the opportunity to have time away from the workplace to work on assessments with the support from a Trainwest Trainer and Assessor.
Students have access to 60 minutes of one-on-one coaching, free of charge. Additional one-on-one coaching is available at an hourly rate for those who need it.
