Sometimes circumstances arise which require a confirmed date to be changed.

Future Energy Skills reserves the right to change dates as needed. Fortunately, this is a rare occurrence and you will be given as much notice as possible if this happens.

You may enter a preferred date for your assessment on the application form. SWP and LEPs are run four to five times a week, so it is possible to get your preferred date, or one very close to it, if you send in your application at least one month in advance of your preferred date. LET assessments are usually held twice a week. These dates are published on the LEA Calendar.

Sometimes the RTO (Registered Training Organisation) you attend for an LEA Refresher Course is able to make a booking for the whole class. In such cases, the following procedures apply, depending on how your RTO likes to work:

6. If Future Energy Skills receives applications from your RTO with less than a month to go before the desired date, a new date for the assessment will most likely have to be arranged.
