1.9
Attendance on, or successful completion of, any temporary works training course DOES
NOT confer competency. Skills, knowledge, and experience will also need to be assessed
to determine suitability to be appointed into a specific temporary works role. This should
be assessed in line with your company’s temporary works process but usually by the
designated individual of the employing organisation.

Attitude and behaviour are also a key component of competency, which will also be
assessed throughout the course as a key performance criteria.
