What is a Third-Party Verification (TPV) Form?
A Third-Party Verification (TPV) Form is a formal document used to confirm and evidence the practical work you have completed in a real workplace environment, such as during your employment or workplace training.
It is completed and signed by your workplace supervisor to verify that you have performed tasks related to your qualification, particularly in areas such as split system air-conditioning installation, maintenance, and servicing.
For reference to your qualification structure, please see:

TPV Folder Requirements (Split System Units)
Your TPV folder must clearly demonstrate your practical experience aligned to the relevant units of competency within the UEE20120 qualification.
Each unit descriptor (found in your folder) outlines the specific skills and tasks required. If you are unsure about any unit, refer to the unit descriptor (pages 4–5) before submitting your evidence.
For split system-related units, your evidence should typically reflect work such as:
- Installing split system indoor and outdoor units
- Running and connecting refrigerant pipework
- Electrical isolation, wiring, and testing
- Pressure testing, vacuuming, and commissioning systems
- Fault finding and servicing split systems
- Following workplace safety procedures (including PPE use)
Important – Do NOT Submit:
- TPV folders missing key information or incomplete evidence
- Photos that are unrelated to split system work or the unit requirements
- Missing supervisor details, signatures, or job verification information
- Generic or unclear documentation that does not demonstrate real work tasks
Important – You MUST Include:
- A minimum of 6-7 clear, high-quality photos per relevant unit
- Photos showing you actively performing split system work tasks
- Evidence of correct PPE (gloves, safety glasses, etc.) and safe work practices
- Photos that clearly match the unit descriptor requirements
- Completed supervisor verification (signature and job confirmation where required)
