Many of our Unit Standards now refer to Primary References.
These are documents that contain information generally or specifically relevant to the Unit Standard subject that the learner should use as learning material to support the learning process.
A primary reference may be a document specifically written by a sector industry or FRSITO, may be a published book, legislation, code of practice or Standard Operating Procedure or National Instruction.
Where these documents exist and have been approved for electronic distribution they have been placed on the table below for download by any learner, trainer or assessor.
Where more than one primary reference exists you may need to contact FRSITO for advice or information about those documents.
Document available for purchase from FRSITO can be viewed in the FRSITO Products section.
