Chemical Application Resource Manual available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Concern in the Australian community about the use of pesticides has been growing steadily over recent years. This concern centres on environmental and health issues and inadvertent damage that can be done to off-target species. A national set of competencies has been developed for the use of chemicals. SMARTtrain is one of the training programs that delivers these competencies. The training program is offered at four levels: Australian Qualification Framework, AQF levels. This course is designed at AQF level 3 and people who successfully complete the course will receive two units of competency and be issued with a Statement of Attainment and a chemical users card. Level III Chemical Application courses are suited to people who are responsible for the purchase and application of pesticides without supervision. This includes owner-operators, local government and government employees and contractors. In-class learning activities are included that will assist the learner to gain knowledge and the ability to interpret labels and SDSs, apply, transport and store chemicals safely, and complete records to comply with legislation.
