This course gives you the knowledge to show up on site looking like you belong there. Across 3 modules, you will learn the Australian WHS framework as it applies to construction, how to read basic construction plans and site documentation, and what site establishment, safety systems, and professional site conduct look like on a real Australian construction project.
