VETASSESS: Non-licensed trade assessments now available online

We have received the following email from VETASSESS today:
 

Dear Agent/Applicant,  

I am pleased to advise that Trades Recognition Australia has given VETASSESS permission to conduct Technical Interview assessments by online video conferencing during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
 
This applies to assessments for non-licensed occupations or Pathway 2 licensed occupations. It means the Technical Interviews can be conducted outside a VETASSESS-approved venue, such as in the applicant’s workplace or home.
 
We plan to start this process from Wednesday 1st April, 2020, until further notice.
 
We will notify all eligible applicants and send further instructions over the next few days.
 
Please note that in these circumstances it is a mandatory requirement of Trades Recognition Australia that we verify the applicant’s identity.
 
The applicant must:
  1. Use Adobe Connect software for the Technical Interview with the assessor.
  2. Provide government approved photographic identification before the interview can commence.
  3. Answer the assessor, in English, without assistance.
  4. Be physically present, and alone, at all times during the Interview.
 
The Interview will be conducted with an independent invigilator at all times. If the invigilator has any concerns about the integrity of the assessment, they will close and cancel the Interview.
 
VETASSESS will send out detailed instructions to applicants in relation to this new process. 
 
We look forward to implementing this solution and assisting applicants during this difficult time.
