Test & Tag Certification: Does it Expire?

Renewing Test and tag training

In Australia, to test and tag you must be considered a 'Competent Person' under the AS/NZS 3760:2022 Standard. Completing a Test and Tag Course will deem you competent - but what happens after you finish? Do you need to refresh your training? 

The short answer: No, you don't have to redo the course. However, to retain your status as a Competent Person, you must:

  • Keep your skills up-to-date
  • Stay up-to-date with the AS/NZS 3760:2022 Standard
  • Maintain knowledge of any changes to testing

This isn't about ticking a box - it's about safety and ensuring you're testing correctly.
