These competencies are taken from the Manufacturing Training Package and provide training that meets the minimum requirements for licensing as a verifier of a complex measuring instrument.

This Skill Set is appropriate for experienced personnel such as fitters, mechanics, instrument manufacturers or importers and software developers who wish to work under a servicing licence to verify complex measuring instruments used in trade measurement. Examples of complex measuring instruments include, LPG dispensers, LPG bulk flowmetering systems, flowmetering systems tested using master meter or gravimetric methods, automatic rail weighbridges, continuous totalising automatic weighing instruments (belt weighers) and totalising hopper weighing instruments.

This Skill Set reflects the minimum requirements for licensing. However, the regulator or individual traders may impose additional requirements before a verifier can start work on some sites. Entrants to this Skill Set should have sufficient workplace skills in OH&S, communication and teamwork that provide underpinning competency to acquire and apply the Skill Set.
