Trade tests in Benoni: what to verify before booking
Check the exact trade, assessment-centre approval, eligibility and full costs before arranging a trade test.

Updated guide • Replaces an unavailable legacy article; this is newly written guidance, not a recovered report of past events.
A trade-test enquiry should start with the exact trade and your existing training and experience. Do not book on the strength of a general claim that a provider offers engineering. Approval for one trade does not establish approval for every trade.
Ask for the assessment reference
Request the centre’s current approval for your specific trade, its approved site and the relevant validity dates. AIET’s register separates training references from assessment-centre and trade-test-centre references so you can see what each supplied letter covers.
Confirm your eligibility
Ask the approved centre which route applies to your background and what evidence it requires. Have your training records and experience information ready for that discussion. This guide does not determine individual eligibility, promise acceptance or advertise a diesel-mechanic assessment outside AIET’s published scope.

Confirm the date, location, assessment fee, any preparation costs and the cancellation terms. Ask what identification, equipment or protective clothing you must bring. Clarify how results are released and how to verify the document you receive.
