To be issued the certificate, there is a practical and theory-based assessment completed during the training session assessing participant knowledge against NZQA unit standard 10851. Assessors must confirm the participants’ ability to demonstrate the correct incident response and safe operating skills within the context. The assessment is accounted for within the course day.
