Vocational competence is defined as broad industry knowledge and experience and may include holding a relevant unit of competency or qualification and having a strong work background and hands-on experience in the field. Evidence of vocational competency can be presented through:

•    Current resume and
•    At least a unit of competency relevant to your vocational area

If you are uncertain, please email tae@stjohn.org.au for more information.

Attainment of competency in TAE40122 requires higher than average ACSF core skills (level 4) in Learning, Reading, Writing and Oral Communication. Level 3 numeracy is sufficient for this qualification, although a higher level of numeracy may be required in your vocational area of expertise.

You will be required to undertake a language, literacy, numeracy and digital (LLND) assessment as part of the enrolment process to determine your core skills level and identify any support that may be required during the course. Where LLND needs are identified, you will be provided with additional support, or be provided with information on more suitable courses.

St John Ambulance Australia has partnered with LLN robot to conduct language, literacy, numeracy and digital (LLND) assessment. 

Upon booking you will be provided with a link for LLN robot where you will complete language, literacy, numeracy and digital (LLND) assessment. This activity must be completed prior to attending the session.
 

Participants are required to comply with enrolment requirements by providing appropriate forms of identification to confirm their eligibility. Participants must provide a validated USI or apply for a USI for their study in Australia. (https://www.usi.gov.au/)

St John provides a variety of flexible learning options tailored to accommodate the diverse needs of individuals. 

St John considers the participants' likelihood of achieving the learning outcomes when determining the duration of delivering this qualification, ensuring the preservation of the qualification's integrity. 

St John recognises that the amount of training we offer forms only a portion of the complete volume of learning, primarily connected to formal activities such as sessions and additional extension tasks.

The training duration for this qualification is determined by each participant's prior experience. Participants with significant relevant experience may complete the qualification in a shorter time. Conversely, newcomers to the profession might take a longer duration, receiving support from our dedicated trainers throughout their journey. The expected timeframe for participants is between six (6) and twelve (12) months to fulfill TAE40122 requirements, aligning with the AQF volume of learning indicators for a Certificate IV qualification.
