READ ACT WHITE CARD GUIDANCE

What is a White Card in the ACT?

A White Card is evidence that you have completed general construction induction training. The national unit, CPCWHS1001 – Prepare to work safely in the construction industry, introduces common site hazards, safety responsibilities, risk controls and personal protective equipment.

The course is a starting point for construction safety. You still need workplace-specific induction and any additional training required for your role.

How do you get a White Card in the ACT?

Complete the six-hour construction induction course through an RTO and receive your Statement of Attainment. Apply to Access Canberra for your card within 60 days. Use your own ACT Digital Account, provide the required documents and pay the application fee.

Check the official Access Canberra guidance.

Validity and replacement White Cards

Access Canberra states that an ACT White Card remains valid indefinitely unless cancelled. If your card is lost or damaged, use your ACT Digital Account to request a replacement. Check the requirements where you will work, particularly when moving interstate.

Can you do White Card training online in the ACT?

This NWCC course is face-to-face in Canberra. Contact us for classroom availability. Applying for your card online through Access Canberra is a separate step after training; an online card application is not an online White Card course.

Using your White Card interstate

A valid White Card is recognised across Australia. Moving interstate does not usually mean repeating general construction induction training. Check the requirements in the place where you will work and complete the site induction and any task-specific training your employer requires.
