When you are assessed as competent in every unit, CAQA issues a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment within 30 calendar days, provided all fees are paid and your USI is verified. It lists each unit of competency and includes the training package wording for this skill set:
This unit of competency from the HLT Health Training Package provides a set of skills and knowledge for individuals working in a range of industry contexts and workplace settings, who have a coordination, work group leadership or supervisory responsibility in relation to infection prevention and control.
If you complete only some units, you receive a Statement of Attainment for the units you have completed. A skill set is not an AQF qualification, but every unit counts toward any qualification that includes it.
