White Card Courses NSW

Our White Card classroom course is a same-day, SafeWork NSW approved program delivered face-to-face at our Arncliffe training centre. A General Construction Induction Card (White Card) is required for anyone working on a construction site across Australia. The course covers the unit CPCWHS1001 Prepare to Work Safely in the Construction Industry in one day of training (up to 7 hours).

On completion you receive a SafeWork NSW Statement of Training, so you are ready to commence work when you leave the classroom while your White Card arrives by mail. Priced at $99 with no hidden fees – the $28 SafeWork NSW card fee is included.
