Frequently Asked Questions
Will this qualify me for my state licence?
Yes. Our course is aligned with licensing body requirements in every Australian state and territory. Upon completion, you'll receive a nationally recognised Certificate IV that your state licensing body will accept.
What's the difference between CPC40820 and the 11067NAT Pool Safety Inspections course?
The CPC40820 is for people who want to build pools and obtain a pool builder's licence. The 11067NAT is for people who want to inspect pools for safety compliance (e.g. to become a Pool Safety Inspector in QLD). They are different qualifications for different career paths — if you're unsure which is right for you, call George on 0432 296 834.
I have years of experience — do I have to start from scratch?
Not at all. RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) is available, which means your existing skills and experience can be assessed and credited toward the qualification, potentially reducing your study time significantly.
How long do I have to complete the course?
You have 12 months from enrolment to complete all units. The course is fully self-paced, so you can work through it as quickly or as gradually as suits your schedule.
