SIS10122 is the nationally recognised Certificate I behind general clerk work. It has been the current version on the national register since 2022, when it replaced SIS10115. About 9,081 general clerk jobs were advertised in June 2026, down 8.5% on a year earlier.
The signals behind the Certificate I in Sport and Recreation are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Employment is projected to grow through 2035 and enrolments are rising. Job ads in June 2026 were down 8.5% on a year earlier and the official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Employers are posting fewer general clerk jobs than a year ago. About 9,081 general clerk jobs were advertised online in June 2026, down 8.5% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 115,800 job ads, while 345 people were training in the qualification nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.
