If you want to be the person who keeps a site safe, this is the entry point. You cover WHS law, risk, incident response, and workplace consultation. Built for the person who wants off the tools.
Site work is hard on the body. Safety work uses what you already know about a job site, without the wear and tear. This course is the recognised way in.
Plenty of crews have someone who already does the toolbox talks. This puts a national code behind that work, so the role can be yours on paper.
There are no set class times and no hard deadlines. You log in when the day allows, and you can pause the course if work gets busy.
Every workplace with a crew needs someone across safety. The work is easy to picture: walking the site, writing up hazards, running toolbox talks, and sorting the paperwork when an incident happens.
The day-to-day eyes on a site, checking hazards and keeping records straight.
Keeps the safety system running, from consultation to incident reports.
The person a crew asks when nobody is sure what the rules require.
Roles where these skills are useful, not promised outcomes. Every role and employer is different, and some ask for more study or experience.
Ten units cover WHS law, risk, incidents, and systems.
Three things carry this course: a national code behind your name, a coach you can call, and a pace that bends around work.
The course was created in partnership with industry leaders, so the tasks look like the WHS paperwork and checks done on real sites.
Support is unlimited. Your coach is an industry veteran who gives feedback on your work and sets a study plan that suits you.
You get a 24-month enrolment period, plus extension and deferral options. Busy season does not have to cost you the course.
