Growsafe^® Training Courses

The Growsafe Basic course is intended for those working under supervision.

It is an entry-level certificate suitable for those new to agrichemical use or those doing pre-employment training. The focus is on practical competence.

All staff who use agrichemicals should have to undertake training at this level to ensure their health and safety. Applicators with a Growsafe Basic certificate should be operating under the supervision of someone with a Growsafe Standard (or higher) certificate.

You will be awarded the Growsafe Basic certificate on successful completion of both written and practical assessments. There is a short written assessment that focuses on reading and understanding label instructions.

For the practical component of the assessment, there are practical tasks on the course and, after the course, you are required to undertake a spray activity and provide your spray diary and documentation from your supervisor/employer confirming your competency.
