Certificate issuance

EPEC Education offers one of the fastest assessment turnaround times in the market:

• Assessments submitted before 10 AM on a business day are marked the same day
• The digital Statement of Attainment is emailed upon confirmation of competency
• The NSW Government FSS certificate (physical card) is posted separately via Express Post

This makes EPEC a strong option when a digital certificate is needed quickly — for example, as immediate evidence of competency before the physical NSW certificate arrives.
