Limited Weighing Instruments
You can only enrol 1 person at a time in this system.

(25% for 2, 40% for 3 or more)
Only verifiers deemed competent and registered by NMI may verify instruments used for trade. Recognition kits (RK) assess your competence against performance criteria related to your work. These performance criteria are set out in units of competency. Successful completion of a recognition kit will lead to the awarding of a Statement of Attainment which will allow you to be registered by our Licensing Section as a verifier.
Read the Recognition Kit Instructions for Verifiers and Weighbridge Operators (PDF) and ensure you have practical experience that allows you to generate evidence related to test reports and transaction records.
NOTE: Evidence of your skills in verifying instruments can be provided by submitting pre-recorded videos (On receival of a complete submission a Sigbox link will be provided to you), or organising a video call or in-person observation with an NMI-appointed skills observer. For more information on this part of the assessment process, and these options, please read the Instructions for observation assessment and instructions given in the kit.
Mandatory skills assessment already applies for 6.1-6.3.
Download the checklist when submitting kits to the NMI Administrator. All RK submissions must be accompanied with a completed checklist.
