The new accredited courses will include:

What does course accreditation mean?

According to the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) accreditation is a formal confirmation that the course has been nationally recognised and meets the established industry, enterprise, legislative or community needs. Furthermore, it provides appropriate competency outcomes and a satisfactory basis for assessment, which meets the national quality assurance requirements and is aligned appropriately to the Australian Quality Framework (AQF) where it may lead to further qualifications.

If you are thinking about expanding your qualifications in the safety and transport industry contact HAZCON, where we can assist you in meeting your business and/or personal development expectations and obtain accreditation along the way in a fun learning environment.
