Course Details

Australian health and safety legislation required employers to verify that their employees possess the necessary skills and qualifications for safe operation, rather than assuming competence. Pinnacle Safety and Training’s Verification of Competency (VOC) assessment is designed to confirm that an operator’s skills align with the machinery and tasks they will be performing in what workplace. This assessment is commonly utilised for pre-employment checks and to meet project-specific requirements.

Our VOC assessments are conducted in accordance with Nationally Recognised Units of Competency, relevant Codes of Practice, Standards, Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (OEM) guidelines, WHS legislation, and your company’s procedures. These evaluations ensure that operators meet both industry and site-specific standards.

Dane the instructor was pretty easy going which set a pretty relaxed learning environment, thus making it a lot easier to take in the info and procedures for the practical. I felt pretty confident going into my practical test and passed first go. Dane was a excellent instructor and a top bloke. I will definitely be using Pinnacle for future courses. Thank you for the training.
