Accredited Person (AP) Training
At IVS, we are committed to seeing New Zealand businesses succeed through the right biosecurity educational training, endorsed by our position as New Zealand’s leading transitional facility training provider.
At the front line of the biosecurity chain, keeping New Zealand free from unwanted pests and diseases, are Accredited Persons (AP's) checking sea containers. AP's are responsible for checking for and managing contamination risks associated with imported sea containers. MAF-approved Transitional Facilities must have an AP on site or have ready access to an AP to inspect imported containers and their contents, avoiding significant delays or extra charges when clearing goods.
To become an AP, candidates must undertake and pass an approved Accredited Person training course. IVS is an approved provider, certifying AP's through a half day training course, which focuses on:
- Procedures for unpacking sea containers and the necessary checks required
- How to conduct sea container inspections and complete the necessary documentation
- Contingency procedures in the event of finding contamination
- Updates to MAF Standards, regulation and checking/reporting procedures
The Certificate of Approval as an Accredited Person is valid for 2 years before refresher training is required. Holding a valid certificate allows an AP to perform biosecurity checks on sea containers and complete log sheets at any Approved Transitional Facility in New Zealand.
