Overview
AVELING’s Construction White Card Online Training is the easy and flexible way to obtain your construction white card qualification.
Upon payment and successful completion of the course, AVELING will issue you a Western Australian White Card and Statement of Attainment for 'CPCCOHS1001A: Work safely in the construction industry'.
Under mutual-acceptance agreements, it is acceptable for people living in SA to complete AVELING's course and use the WA White Card in South Australia. More information is available from SafeWork SA and as per these guidelines:
South Australia has adopted the National Code of Practice for Induction for Construction Work as an Approved Code of Practice. The adoption of the Code essentially removes a layer of red tape in hiring construction employees in SA. It recognises safety induction training performed interstate, thereby avoiding the need to duplicate it for access to SA sites. The safety induction training is recognised across all states.
The White Card online course offers the following benefits:
- Do it anytime
The training course is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This course can be completed anywhere using a standard computer and Internet.
- Take it at your own pace
AVELING’s course keeps track of your progress. This means you can take the course over several days or weeks if needed.
- Skip content you already know
Are you already working in the industry? You can take a test at the beginning of each topic and depending on the outcome, you can skip part or all of the content in that topic.
- Pay only on completion
Not sure whether online training is for you? Give AVELING’s White card course a go, obligation free. If you don't finish, you don't pay.
Who is the induction training meant for?
In accordance with the South Australian Code of Practice for Induction for Construction Work, the Code is relevant to anyone involved in construction work, especially if you:
- have control of construction projects (e.g. principal contractors, project managers, main contractors, builders, employers, self employed persons)
- have control of construction work (e.g. employers, self-employed persons, principal contractors, main contractors, sub-contractors)
- carry out construction work (e.g. employees, contractors, labour-hire workers)

What is it?
Group Bookings provide a simple way for you to arrange for payment and delivery before your users enrol in the course.
How does it work?
When your Group Booking account is set up, you will receive a unique code. Your users enter this code when they enrol and the system will automatically assign them to your group booking and they will not be required to pay when they complete.
What group booking options are there?
There are two basic types of group booking options:
- Limited Group Booking
Under this option, only a set number of people are able to use the group booking code. This option is great for companies who have a small number of users or require a set dollar amount for raising purchase orders.
- Unlimited Group Booking
Under this option, there is no limit on the number of people who can use the group booking code. This option is ideal for companies who have a large number of users and wish to be invoiced periodically according to the number of users completed.
Am I notified when someone uses my Group Booking Code?
Yes.
When we create your Group Booking, we ask for you to nominate a company contact and email address. Every time someone uses your Group Booking code, an email is automatically sent to your contact with the person's details. If this person is not authorised, just contact us and we will remove them from your account.
Can I remove someone from my account if a user doesn't complete the course?
Yes.
If one of users decides not to complete the course just contact us and we will remove them from your account (excludes non-completions due to assurance audits).
Can I receive a copy of their statement of attainment when they successfully complete course?
Yes.
If needed, we can set up your Group Booking account to automatically forward a copy of each user's statement of attainment by email when they have successfully completed the course.
Can I receive their evidence of completion (i.e. White Card) delivered to me instead of the individual?
Yes.
If needed, we can set up your Group Booking account to automatically deliver your users' evidence of completion to a nominated postal address.
What payment options are available?
You can either:
- Pre-pay for all users by credit card, debit card or cash (limited group bookings only).
- Pre-Pay for all users by purchase order (limited group bookings only and credit application required).
- Be invoiced weekly based on the number of persons who have completed the course during that period. (Limited or unlimited group booking; credit application required.)
Can I manage my Group Booking?
Yes.
Once the Group Booking is set up, we provide you with a user name and login for the portal. This account enables you to view your group booking account to:
- View the number of seats used and remaining.
- Search for specific users in your account and their progress.
- View and download each user's statement of attainment.

Are you confused about the SA Blue Card and SA White Card?
We have compiled an FAQ below so that you can understand
what it all means and how it applies to you.
Who should take this course?
You should only take our course if you intend to work in Western Australia.
Can I take this course if I live and work in another state or territory?
This depends on which state/territory you will work in. For example, Victoria accepts SA White Cards. Check the requirements with the appopriate agency in your state/territory (e.g. WorkSafe, WorkCover etc) or call AVELING for further details.
Who needs to undertake construction safety awareness training in Western Australia?
The list is rather long, but if you intend to perform any manual work on a Western Australian building site, you will probably need a SA White card.
This includes anyone who will be:
- Erecting, altering, repairing, renovating, dismantling or demolishing a building or structure
- Performing any excavation work
- Painting, cleaning, landscaping on a construction worksite while construction work is being undertaken
- Installing any equipment such as cabinets, appliances, sprinkler systems and windows/glass
- Installing carpet or curtains on a construction worksite while construction work is being undertaken
- Assembling, moving and/or repairing equipment on a construction site
- Performing any electrical and plumbing work
- Performing any road works or earthworks
- Being a supervisor or foreman on a construction site
- Inspecting or auditing which requires direct and active interaction with the construction process
- Being an engineer or surveyor who carries out preparatory work
The above list is a guide only. If you have any doubts, please contact your employer or WorkSafe for clarification.

What is the difference between the SA Blue Card and SA White Card?
In short there is no difference between the SA Blue Card and SA White Card. WorkSafe will continue to accept both the SA Blue Card and SA White Card as evidence that you have completed the Construction Safety Awareness Training course.
Blue Cards will be continued to be issued until all WorkSafe stock has been used. After this occurs, SA White Cards will be issued.
When does the SA White Card expire?
On 31 July, 2009, WorkSafe issued a formal notice that blue cards and white cards will no longer expire.
Under the national code of practice, employers may require you to re-take the course if you have not worked in the industry for more than two years or if the employer considers repeat training necessary.
