What is the Skills Passport?

The Skills Passport is a set of questionnaires which have been developed to help you recognise the skills you have achieved at school, at work and through life experiences.

These skills are called the Key Competencies. Key Competencies can be demonstrated through employment, voluntary work, during student life and in day-to-day life.

Skills Passport Candidates

If you want to do the Skills Passport you will need to choose a person to be your mentor. They will help you through the questionnaires and authorise your Skills Passport Certificate upon completion.

Your mentor should be a responsible person who knows you such as a teacher, community group leader, manager, youth worker or Centrelink officer.

Upon first registering for the Skills Passport, you will be given a mentor code which you will need to give to your chosen mentor to sign in with.
