After two consecutive years training, raters are then considered experienced and only need to attend the one day “refresher” course every second year.
- One Day Course (2nd Day): Experienced Raters are those who have attended two consecutive years training. To remain current, they must attend the one day “refresher” course every second year. i.e. if you attended a 1 day course within the last 12 months, then you are not required to attend again until 2025.
