To obtain SEANZ accreditation recognised training must be completed as required for the relevant accreditation category. More information about the training that must be completed is contained in the SEANZ Training and accreditation summary, available here.

Those currently holding registration as an Electrician or Electrical Service Technician will not be required to complete the general electrical competencies as required in the training. Other cross credits or recognition of prior learning may also be available to those with previous training. This will be assessed on a case by case basis by the training provider and credits awarded as appropriate.

Experienced practitioneers are offered the opportunity to have the practical experience recognised. This process will be handled by the training provider who will assess completed work and the knowledge of the installer against the requirements of the training modules. This will allow an experienced practitioner to obtain the relevant qualifications and therefore accreditation without completing the course. Assessment is likely to involve review of case studies and an interview. SEANZ will be working with training providers to make standard templates available for case studies.

Please contact the training provider for more information about this process.
