A VOC is an assessment of a person's knowledge and skills — helping you meet your WHS obligations and keep your crews compliant on plant and equipment.
VOCs run on demand — tell us the unit(s), how many workers, and whether it's at our Regents Park yard or on your site. We'll confirm a date within one business day.
Unit(s) of competency, number of workers, preferred dates and location.
$255 per unit verified. Invoice with payment details sent same day.
Short written/oral assessment + practical observation. VOC Card issued on completion.
We deliberately keep VOCs at $255 — barely above cost. It's how we earn your first visit. Most workers who VOC with us come back for their next ticket, their 5-year renewal, or bring their whole crew. We'd rather win you for a decade than profit on day one. And if you're deemed not yet competent, you can re-sit after refresher training — no re-assessment fees.
Bank details are included on your booking confirmation / invoice. Full payment secures your VOC date.
Amex · Mastercard · Visa checkout is being set up. Until then, pay by bank transfer or over the phone.
No re-assessment fee. Re-assessment must be completed within 60 days of the course; after 60 days you must re-enrol.
A VOC proves you're current on a ticket you hold — which means you've already met the prerequisite for the next one. Book it on the same visit and take the combo rate.
Booked separately $2,890 · DG + RB combo $2,550 on the same intake. No re-assessment fee. Re-assessment must be completed within 60 days of the course; after 60 days you must re-enrol.
Booked separately $3,190 · RB + RI combo $2,750. Current dogging (DG) and rigging basic (RB) licences are required before enrolment (Training Combined entry requirement).
DG is the gateway ticket to the whole rigging & crane pathway.
Group bookings and on-site VOC days for builders and hire companies across Western Sydney. Keep your crew's licences current without pulling everyone off-site.
A Verification of Competency is an assessment of a person's knowledge and skills. The process assists employers with meeting their Workplace Health & Safety (WH&S) obligations to deem staff competent to perform a task or operate plant and/or equipment.
Australian industry regulations require employers and persons conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU) to ensure their workers can clearly demonstrate their ability to perform the tasks related to their job role when plant is used. The use of a VOC is one way of ensuring this happens.
VOCs are undertaken on persons who already hold a current ticket, licence, or unit of competency, to verify that they are still competent to that standard. Participants must provide evidence of their existing competency. The outcome is a Statement which references the activities, tasks, plant and equipment verified. It does not satisfy the requirements for the issuance of a nationally recognised unit of competency.
VOCs are not nationally recognised training. How often a VOC is needed is set by your employer or site, not by a regulator.
Any person deemed not yet competent will be offered the opportunity to undertake refresher training and another VOC assessment after they pass the refresher training.
The assessment process involves a short written and/or oral assessment, plus direct observation of the practical task on the relevant plant or equipment. On successful completion a VOC Card is issued.
Not yet competent? You'll be offered refresher training and another VOC assessment after passing the refresher.
