Prerequisites:

• All participants must hold CPCCWHS1001 - 'Prepare to work safely in the construction industry' OR CPCCOHS1001A - 'Work safely in the construction industry' obtained after 11 May 2009. This is commonly known as a 'White Card'.
• If you do not provide this by the business day prior to your course commencement, your enrolment will be cancelled, and you will not be permitted entry to the course. If this occurs, our terms and conditions will apply and therefore your course fee will not be refunded nor held in credit.
• NOTE: If your White Card was issued prior to 11 May 2009, we cannot recognise this as a valid prerequisite, as it does not prove that you were assessed against the correct unit of competency.
• This training is realistic, somewhat physical and may involve working in hot or cold environments whilst suited up in PPE. It is important that all personnel who attend this course have a suitable level of fitness and are willing and capable of moving about in a small enclosed room, and wearing face masks.
• This course requires practice in wearing correct, full PPE and undertaking personal decontamination techniques, therefore participants must be prepared to wear shorts and T-shirt under coveralls.
• Participants must bring additional clothing - shorts, singlet top/T-shirt and a pair of thongs (flip-flops) for the practical activity.
