Journeyman General Plumbing Registration Exam

After successful completion of the Educational off the Job component of your General Plumbing Apprenticeship and after consultation and recommendation with your Senior Educator, you will be eligible to undertake the Journeyman’s examination.

This is supervised and assessed by a Licensed Registered Examiner from the Victorian Building Authority Plumbing Division.

With the successful completion of the required components you will be eligible to become a Registered Plumber with the Victorian Building Authority (VBA).

The VBA regulates plumbing practitioners, plumbing work and plumbing standards to protect the safety and health of people, and the integrity of the water supply. To uphold this objective, it registers people only if satisfied they can carry out plumbing work competently and safely.
