CPCCWHS1001 - Prepare to work safely in the construction industry
- This nationally recognised White Card training course gives trainees basic knowledge of:
- construction work
- Work Health and Safety (WH&S) laws
- common hazards encountered in construction work
- how associated risks can be controlled
- Under WHS legislation, workers on construction sites must undertake general induction training or ‘White Card training’ and have evidence of their attendance from the course before they are permitted to commence work on a construction site.
Can I Do My White Card Course Online in QLD? Buyer Beware!
From February 2019, training for the white card must be undertaken face to face in Queensland.
If you live in Cairns and the surrounding area you will not be able to do your white card online. If you do, it may be invalid - and you still need to have your photo taken with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) on (see photo - we supply the gear). If you don't have any, you will have to buy/borrow some, adding to the cost and time.
Cheaper & Faster
Why bother with that! Stroll in to Cairns truck School's Training Centre for our face-to-face white card course and walk out with your white card and certificate of attainment in your hands at the end.
Exemption
An exemption applies allowing candidates whose residential address is further than 100 kilometres away from the nearest RTO delivering face to face white card training, to complete the white card training via online delivery. You will still need a photo with PPE though.
