RPL and credit transfer: N/A

Identify health and safety legislative requirements of construction work | Identify construction hazards and risk control measures | Identify health and safety communication and reporting processes

Under the legislation, we are able to provide you two options.

The first option; the student can effectively communicate both verbally and written and is able to competently read and write while under instruction throughout the course unassisted.

The second option requires direct assistance for the student, where writing is somewhat difficult.  Therefore in regards to written assessments we are able to conduct a one-on-one verbal assessment with the student.

This process involves the assessor verbally asking the assessment questions in a one on one scenario.

• This is also not a spelling test.
