Frequently Asked Questions
A USI - Unique Student Identifier is a reference number that creates an online record of your training and qualifications attained in Australia.
Nationally recognised training is any programme of training leading to vocational qualifications and credentials that are recognised across Australia.
Only Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) can deliver nationally recognised training and issue nationally recognised qualifications or statements of attainment.
Nationally recognised training can be identified with this logo:
Yes. This is a High-Risk Work (HRW) Licence which expires every five (5) years. You can renew your Licence at any Austral Post outlet, fees apply. For further details ring 13 10 50 or follow this link to Safework NSW website
You must renew your HRW Licence within 12 months of its expiry otherwise your Licence can’t be renewed, and you will need to enrol with an RTO and re-do the Forklift Course to apply for your Licence.
High risk work licences are valid for five years and recognised nationally: you can work in any state or territory if you have a current HRW licence.
And remember, you need to keep your licence available for inspection.
If the date of issue on your Card is more than 2 years ago and you have continued to carry out construction work over the past two years, it is still current.
Your white card will become void and you'll have to retrain if you haven't done any construction work within 2 years of your training.
From 1 July 2020 it is mandatory that all workers are trained before conducting traffic control work on or adjacent to public roads. Existing RMS Photo Cards will be recognised as meeting this requirement until expiry date when you can apply to SafeWork NSW to renew your cards. The renewal process must be done on line at: www.service.nsw.gov.au
Renewing your Card with SafeWork NSW does not provide you with any training and you may not have the necessary skills to carry out all aspects of traffic control work such as positioning, setting up and programming portable traffic control devices. By law, Employers cannot allow you to carry out this work and face significant penalties if they do. Complete our 1-day Upgrade Course to bring your skills up to date with the use of portable traffic control devices.
No, Your Card is valid only in NSW. For further information go to: https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/licences-and-registrations/licences/traffic-controller-training
It is current industry best practice that you renew and refresh your card every two years.

SafeWork NSW code of practice recommends first aiders should attend training on a regular basis to refresh their first aid knowledge and skills and to confirm their competence to provide first aid. Refresher training in CPR should be undertaken annually and first aid qualifications should be renewed every three years.
First aiders may also need to undertake additional first aid training to respond to specific situations at their workplace. For example, where workers have severe allergies, first aiders should be trained to respond to anaphylaxis if this topic has not been covered in previous first aid training.
While Safe Working at Heights certificates do not show a validity period, it is the view of the Working At Heights Association (WAHA) that certification should be no more than 2 years old as refresher training and familiarisation with new equipment and techniques is essential in this high risk activity.
WAHA was established in 2009 in response to the industry’s demand for a peak body to provide information and support for businesses needing to address working at height issues.
