Verification of competency is an extra layer on skills that need it: alongside the certificate, a second verification file is provided, and both must be approved before the skill counts. It is how you hold high-risk competencies to a stronger standard of proof.

This guide covers:

• Flagging which skills require a verification of competency
• Providing the verification file alongside the worker’s certificate
• Approving both files, since the skill does not count until each is signed off
• Recording the result as a single training record once both are approved

Require verification where it matters and a worker counts as qualified only when the competency itself, not just the paperwork, has been checked.

💡 Power User Insight: Because both the certificate and the verification file must be approved before the skill counts, a worker with only one of the two still reads as not yet qualified — check both are in before relying on that skill at the gate.
