FOR AUSTRALIAN BUILDING TRADES
From checking trade requirements to organising evidence, preparing applications and following up, Easy Licence helps you understand and prepare each step.
Have building-trade experience and want a relevant qualification? We help check your target qualification, organise work evidence and prepare for the provider’s assessment requirements.
Need a TRA trade skills assessment? We review your duties and background, help identify the applicable programme and prepare verifiable application evidence.
Planning building or trade work in Queensland? We help check the relevant QBCC licence class, qualifications and experience requirements, organise application documents and follow up on progress.
Check qualifications, skills assessments and licences separately.RPL assesses existing competence for qualification recognition. TRA skills assessments follow a specific programme and purpose. QBCC determines Queensland building licences. An assessment outcome does not automatically replace a licence.

Organise your work history, then check qualification and evidence requirements.
We help match your actual work tasks to the target qualification and assessment requirements. If you plan to apply for a licence, we also help identify qualification requirements in the intended state or territory.
We help organise employment dates, project records, work photos, referees and existing qualifications into a clear evidence index.

FAQs
RPL assesses existing knowledge and skills through genuine evidence reviewed by a registered training organisation. Years of experience alone do not determine the result; gaps may require further assessment or training. Trade qualifications and QBCC licences have separate requirements.
Qualifications and licences are separate. Check licensing requirements for the work you intend to do. A qualification does not replace a QBCC licence.
Requirements differ by programme. MSA mainly assesses documents; OSAP may involve a technical interview or practical assessment, while JRP includes workplace assessment. Confirm the applicable programme before preparing.
If your goal is a building licence, identify the work scope and licence class first. Then check the accepted technical qualifications and other criteria before choosing a qualification.
Photos can be part of your evidence. Add project context, dates, your own tasks and verifiable records. The RTO decides which documents, interviews or practical assessments are needed.
Support covers clarifying the trade and goal, organising evidence, preparing an application and tracking requests for further information within the agreed scope. The relevant body determines assessment and licensing outcomes.
List your trade, main tasks, work history, existing qualifications and location. Specify whether your goal is a trade qualification, TRA assessment or QBCC licence. The preparation page creates a summary without sending it.
