Prepare to Work Safely in the Construction Industry (White Card)

How Much Does a White Card Cost?

How Much Does a White Card Cost?


The White card Melbourne is an invaluable resource for obtaining employment within the Australian construction industry. This card is valid in all states within Australia. It comes with a statement of attainment that shows that the course was completed.

This card is required for working in certain industries and professions, and many employers will not consider your application unless you can provide proof of having taken the White Card course. The potential employer may want further accreditation from you as well, but the White Card is a standard requirement when entering the workforce in the construction industry.

How much is this card going to cost you? Well, you have to take the White Card course in order to qualify for the physical White Card. That course is offered as a classroom training session that costs $155. This one-time cost includes all fees and covers the cost for the entire course and the issuance of the White Card itself. There are no hidden charges, and you never have to renew the card, as it is always valid. Be careful about courses that advertise as being considerably cheaper, as they may not be valid anywhere and could simply be scams. You might be surprised at how many fake courses exist that are just a way to steal your money.

There are other, cheaper ways to get the same card, but what you get might not be valid everywhere. People often pay less to take the online course, but that course is really only valid in Western Australia, Tasmania and remote areas of Queensland. If you take a Victorian course online it will not be accepted in Victoria, as the online course is available to Victorian residents.

It is worth it to pay the full price for the classroom course, as this training is hands on and is widely accepted across Australia. It opens up some great job opportunities for plastering, plumbing, electrical, concreting and other types of construction work. Without that valid White Card, you would not be able to do these kinds of work, no matter what your previous training and skill may be.

The $155 you pay for the course and the card is not a recurring fee. You won’t have to take the course over again, and the training that the course provides to you is invaluable. You will learn about identifying workplace risks and preventing them to keep workplace accidents to a minimum. You will also learn how to respond when there is a workplace accident, ensuring quick and decisive action that can save lives, minimize injuries and prevent excessive costs for the company.

Taking this course makes you a valuable asset for any company you choose to work with. The nationally recognised White Card is priced affordably. You have to complete the full course, including the multiple choice assessment, if you want to obtain a White Card.
