EnviTE Training

EnviTE is Registered By NSW Vocational Education and Training (VETAB) to issue the following qualifications:
Not only does EnviTE offer accredited training it also has the facilities to deliver non accredited units in a range of specialty areas relating to bush regeneration and land conservation. Units on offer include site assessment, vegetation restoration techniques, native plant identification, native plant propagation, weed control and occupational health and safety.
As a necessary part of our registration the organisation offers assessment on individual skills and knowledge already learnt. This process is called Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and/or Recognition of Current Competency (RCC). Potential participants have the option to undergo an 'Assessment only' where no training is required, knowledge is derived from previous employment and or life experience. The successful outcome of these three methods is a VETAB accredited certificate in Conservation and Land Management.
Training and assessment and other assessment options are available to Work for the Dole or Community Work Placement participants who are eligible for Training Credits. Courses on offer are subject to sufficient class numbers. Participants will be notified of the value of their training credits on completion of their contract. Should you choose to undertake training with EnviTE, your Community Work Coordinator will arrange payment of your course fees.
