Interim certificates
71 Interim certificates
On the completion of a training course by a person, the course provider must, as soon as reasonably practicable, issue the person an interim certificate certifying that the person has completed the course.
On completion of an RSA bridging course by a person, the Secretary is to issue the person with an interim certificate certifying that the person has completed the RSA bridging course.
An interim certificate that certifies the completion of a course is, for the period of 90 days after the interim certificate is issued, taken to be equivalent to a recognised competency card with the relevant recognised competency card endorsement.
The Secretary may, by notice in writing addressed to the holder of an interim certificate, extend the period of 90 days in exceptional circumstances, and in that case the interim certificate and the notice are taken to be equivalent to a recognised competency card with the relevant recognised competency card endorsement for the extended period.
Note.
For example, a person may produce an interim certificate (or an interim certificate and an extension notice), instead of a recognised competency card, in compliance with a requirement under clause 75, and a person may sell, supply or serve liquor by retail on licensed premises, during the period of equivalence. After that, a person must obtain a recognised competency card with the relevant recognised competency card endorsement in order to sell, supply or serve liquor by retail on licensed premises.
A person who is issued an interim certificate may apply to the Secretary for a recognised competency card with the relevant recognised competency card endorsement.
The application must be accompanied by the fee specified in clause 7(1), item 4A if the application relates to the issue of a recognised competency card with an RSA endorsement issued on the basis of—
an RSA bridging course, or
a licensee training course.
The application must be accompanied by the fee specified in clause 7(1), item 3 if—
the application relates to the renewal of a recognised competency card endorsement, or
the following apply—
the person has a recognised competency card with a different recognised competency card endorsement,
the application relates to an additional recognised competency card endorsement.
