@member24237: "Sorry to bore you lot with yet another TRA question from me but I really
want to get this right first time.
I have completed all the stuff I need exept that my company I did my
apprenticeship with 15 years ago could only provide me with a statment
that I worked there for 4 years and what my position was. I am going to
do a stament of fact to give details of my training etc but I don't have
any indentures, although I do have an ONC cert and cert from the EITB to
show the training I undertook.
I have been in my present job for 15 years as a fitter so would it be
safer for my to apply under the recent work experience, as I am worried
that if I apply under the formal training route they may fail me because
of lack of indenture cert. When I looked at threads from 2004 someone
failed for exatly that reason or have things changed since then.
Thanks in advance for any advice

I am no expert here but as far as I know they will look to see if you
qualify on either basis so if you think you can make both then do so.
If you are relying on the original however I think you really need a
little more information.  Perhaps an additional statutory declaration
from a work colleague.  Also make sure your "statement of fact" is done
as an official statutory declaration if you are putting a lot of faith
in that, but bear in mind that they really want to see slightly more
than you swearing that you are qualified.
Hope this helps a little.
Brian.

Thanks Brian
I have my qualifications from my apprenticeship so that should help. I
have been working Gillette in the UK for 15 years and they have done
me a reference stating my job and what I do and I have also written
about 30 pages of job descriptions. I just hope this is enough to
satisfy them :)
Has anyone passes the TRA without their indentures even though they have
said they have had formal training?
