Verify Fake First Aid & Training Certificates

There has been an increase in recent times around fraudulent certificates. As an employer, a fake first aid certificate could leave you at risk of being fined or worse, not having sufficiently trained staff to treat injured employees or customers.

Certificates issued by Allens Training have a number of key security measures in place to make it very difficult to create a fraudulent certificate. Our nationally recognised statements of attainment feature the following measures:

• Course unit listing
• The words ‘Statement of Attainment
• Display the nationally recognised training logo (an upside triangle)
• The registered training organisation’s number e.g. Allens Training Pty Ltd 90909
• Certificate identifier which includes the booking number and enrolment number
• The watermark feature to protect from duplication
• The design is smaller in file size with a complex design

Of course, fraudulently produced certificates can be submitted that have all of the above markings. You should still verify the authenticity of the certificate with the registered training organisation to determine if the certificate is genuine.

The best practice is to have a validation tool to verify the authenticity of the company website. If you have an Allens Training certificate you can check by scanning the QR Code.

The result is instant confirmation of the student name and units of competency received, and it takes 5 seconds, to receive this piece of mind

Allens Training supports the efforts of the regulators in highlighting this problem and looks forward to working with partners to ensure quality training is delivered to a range of industries and workplaces
