Contractor compliance training is strongest when the organisation can prove more than attendance. A useful record links the worker, required learning, version of the induction or course, completion result, supporting evidence, approval where needed and any expiry or renewal rule.
## Training completion is not the same as competence An induction or e-learning certificate may show that information was delivered and an assessment completed. It does not automatically prove practical competence for a regulated or safety-critical task. Employers and principal contractors should define which activities require additional qualifications, cards, licences or practical sign-off.
## What should an audit-ready record contain? Keep the worker identity, employer or contractor relationship, course or induction title, content/version date, completion timestamp, assessment result, issuer or approver, supporting evidence, validity period and renewal date where applicable.
## Expiry and access controls Where training, cards or permissions expire, the system should make the expiry visible and support renewal workflows. For higher-risk work, organisations may also need to prevent assignment or access until required evidence is current.
## External verification Where an external card, qualification or licence is relied upon, verify it using the issuer or recognised verification route where available rather than relying only on an uploaded image.
## SAVI’s approach SAVI Workplace supports compliance and contractor-focused learning, while SAVI Credentials and the Skills Passport can provide a record of supported completed learning. Organisations remain responsible for deciding what evidence is required for each role, site, task or regulatory obligation.
