Enhanced R1 Courses & Training Providers

  1. Please note that only courses listed under the recognised ER1F course framework will be accepted for Enhanced R1 Framework (ER1F) qualification purposes. Courses outside the recognised list will not contribute towards workers meeting the training requirements for R1 / low levy eligibility.
  2. Members are strongly encouraged to verify the course title carefully before proceeding with registration, as not all WSQ or industry-related courses are recognised under ER1F.
  3. Employers are therefore advised to:
    • Verify the exact course title before registration;
    • Confirm with the training provider that the course is recognised under ER1F;
    • Check with ASPRI if unsure before proceeding with course bookings.
  4. For clarification or verification support, please contact ASPRI at:
