White Card FAQs

What if my Card is lost, damaged or destroyed?: You can complete an application form (Replacement of a SafeWork NSW Construction Induction Card, form number ACC06) and submit to SafeWork NSW with the associated fee of $30, together with proof of training details, identification, and a signed statutory declaration. Further information can be found on SafeWork NSW’s website or phone 131 050.
Can I use this qualification Australia-wide?: As of the 1st of September 2012, the White Card NSW General Induction Card is recognised nationally.
Is this a "Green Card" or "White Card"?: Previously, participants who completed the WHS Induction course were issued with a “green card”. With legislation changes, participants are now issued with a “white card”.
How long is the White Card valid for?: This card does not expire, however if you have not worked on a construction for 2 years or more, SafeWork NSW recommends attending a course to update your skills and knowledge.
Do I need to bring PPE?: No, you are not required to bring any PPE, only yourself and your ID. If you are looking for some PPE, we have very limited steel cap boots that can be purchased from our Sydney CBD location.
Are you registered with CRICOS?: We are not registed with CRICOS, however the White Card NSW is exempt from CRICOS registration, therefore Student Visa Holders are able to undertake this training

General Course FAQs

Is my course tax deducible?

In Australia, course fees are tax deductible if they are directly related to your current job, either maintaining or improving the skills required or being a condition of your employment. The course must be linked to your current employment and not just for future job opportunities. Expenses reimbursed by your employer are not deductible, and you can only claim for out-of-pocket costs.

For definitive guidance, please consult a tax professional or refer to the Australian Tax Office (ATO) website to ensure compliance with tax regulations.

When is my booking confirmed?

Your booking is confirmed once we receive full payment of course fees. Unfortunately there are rare occasions where the course will sell out prior to you finalising payment. In this situation a member of our customer service team will get in contact to organise an alternate training date.

What are your payment methods?

Payment can be made at the time of booking using either a credit card, EFTPOS or cash. Invoices and acceptance of company cheques is by prior arrangement only.

We do not offer payment installments and full payment of course fees are required at the time of booking. The good news is that we try to always offer value for money and keep course fees affordable, so you know that you are always getting good value, especially with our package deals which offer reduced prices!

How do I book multiple staff?

We can book multiple people at once for the White Card Sydney course and create company invoices, even for individual students. Simply email our bookings team at bookings@tcptraining.com.

Please include the course name, location and date you wish to enrol them into, their full names and unique emails. We also require the company's legal name, address, ABN and contact for invoicing.

What if I have trouble with written/spoken english?

Most courses will permit a student to bring a friend to interpret for them during training. If you do need assistance, we ask that you contact first before booking your course so we can advise if there are any restrictions. For example, Forklift training requires students to complete all assessments in English.

If the course permits, you may bring a friend along to the course or, alternatively, you can phone the National Translation service to book an interpreter. Visit the Immigration website for more information about help with translating.

Can Centrelink pay for me?

What you need to do is register with your local Job Network Agent. Your Employment Consultant will make the booking with us on your behalf and arrange payment with us directly. Unfortunately Centrelink does not pay directly.
