If you are thinking of doing Remove Non-Friable Asbestos, Remove Friable Asbestos or Supervise Asbestos Training there are important prerequisites that are needed before you can commence training.
Prerequisites are as follows:
All participants MUST hold and present on the day of training a Statement of Attainment Certificate, showing either “CPCCOHS1001A – Work safely in the construction industry” OR “CPCCWHS1001 – Prepare to work safely in the construction industry”. Either of these units of competency are a prerequisite for asbestos training. If you completed WHITE CARD formal training AFTER September 2009 you will have completed the correct unit of competency. If TRAINING WAS PRIOR to 2009 you will need to redo the WHITE CARD.
If a Statement of Attainment Certificate showing you have completed either of these units and other applicable prerequisites listed below is not presented a course booking cannot be taken. You must present your white card certification as described above and applicable prerequisites below before we can take the booking for the asbestos training course.
NON-FRIABLE Asbestos training is also a prerequisite to FRIABLE Asbestos training. Also SUPERVISE Asbestos Training requires both or either depending on application to Industry.
(If you have completed asbestos training with us in the past we will have your record to support prerequisites)
This is not a SafeWork NSW prerequisite, but a National Training Authority requirement which must be met.
You must provide the trainer with 100 points of ID prior to the commencement of asbestos training, failure to produce the documents will result in you being unable to participate in the training and having to leave the premises.
White card after 2009 is a pre-requisite for Safework NSW Approved Class A, B & Supervise TrainingHoweverAsbestos Awareness Training is a half day course to achieve a Certificate of Attendance
