Certificates in General Education for Adults

The skills required to achieve these certificates are combined with other courses offered by the Education and Training Unit, e.g. OH&S. Certificates are issued once a worker reaches a particular level of language, literacy and numeracy skill. The certificates can be used for recognition of general education levels for workers who left school prior to completing Year 9, 10 or 11, by the CFMEU Education and Training Units, or by referral to recognised WorkCover assessors.
 
The Training Unit provides the following five certificate courses in General Education:
