Job Ready Program – Employment Verification Report (EVR)

Motor Mechanic (General) (ANZSCO 321211)

The Trades Recognition Australia (TRA) Job Ready Program (JRP) is an employment-based
skills assessment program for international student graduates with an Australian
qualification.
You are receiving this form because you have an employee applying for, or
currently participating in, the Job Ready Program. The information you provide in
this form will allow us to confirm that the workplace and employment arrangements provide
enough opportunity for the participant to develop the required skills in their nominated
occupation.
Your role, as the employer, is to:
• give the participant appropriate trade level work under standard employment
arrangements within a safe work environment
• nominate an employee skilled in the occupation to supervise the participant
• sign-off on the participant’s progress report (usually six months after the start of the
program)
• support the participant to develop and improve their skills and understanding of
Australian Standards and Legislation, language, and terminology as it is used in the
workplace
• help the participant to demonstrate their trade skills in an Australian workplace
• allow an approved assessor to carry out a workplace assessment of the participant’s
skills and job readiness (after 6 months or longer in the program).
To receive a successful workplace assessment outcome your employee (the JRP participant)
will have to demonstrate the skills they have developed in the workplace. They will also have
to show that they have the capacity to apply their skills and knowledge to all other tasks and
duties involved in the occupation even if they are not doing them daily.
How to provide the completed EVR to TRA
This form must be completed and signed by you, as the employer and/or a nominated
supervisor. The participant will upload the completed EVR in the TRA Online Portal.
If you have any questions about this form or the Job Ready Program, please visit
