In an unregulated industry where anyone can claim expertise, verifiable credentials matter. Test Australia's assessments are conducted by a qualified Chartered Chemist with credentials you can independently confirm.
Every credential listed here can be independently verified through the issuing organisation.
The highest professional chemistry qualification in Australia, awarded by the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI). Requires rigorous examination, peer review, and demonstrated professional competence.
Tertiary qualification in Applied Science with specialisation in Applied Chemistry, providing the scientific foundation for forensic contamination assessment. Covers analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, instrumental analysis, and laboratory methodology.
Active membership in Australia's leading professional bodies for occupational hygiene, forensic science, fire investigation, and air quality — ensuring continuous professional development and adherence to current best practices.
All sample analysis is performed at laboratories accredited by the National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA) under ISO/IEC 17025. This ensures legally defensible, quality-assured results.
