Online White Card

To work on a construction site in Australia it is compulsory for everyone to hold a  'White Card'. The white card is a requirement under OH&S Codes of Practice across most jurisdictions. It allows individuals to access or be present on construction sites.

Our online white card course allows you to complete this course without the traditional face to face training. 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO STUDENTS AS FROM  19th July 2019– Please read.

There has been a major change affecting the students to are eligible to complete online training for the unit CPCCWHS1001 Prepare to work safely in the construction industry.

Students who do not live in Tasmania or Western Australia are no longer able to complete this training online.

If you are located in Western Australia, you can complete the course and be issued with a Western Australian White card.

If you are located in Tasmania, you will be issued with a Statement of Attainment, which you will need when applying for your white card (applications are done through WorkSafe Tasmania by attending a Service Tasmania outlet).

The White Card itself is a credit card sized card, and is gained by completing a face-to-face or online White Card course,  typically taking around 6 hours, including assessment, officially known as the 'CPCCWHS1001 Prepare to work safely in the construction industry' course.
