What happens after the course?
If your assessment results in a pass you are then lodged with WorkSafe and a Certificate of Compliance Approved Filler – Refrigerants A1 & A2/A2L is issued to you. This will expire in 5 years at which point you will need to be reassessed to get renewed.
Please note: Unsafe, reckless and careless practices during the course will likely fail you. We take no responsibility should you fail to follow safe practices after the course. This course does not cover A3 or Ammonia refrigerants.
