What is a White Card in WA?

A White Card (Construction Induction Card) is required to enter or perform work on a construction or building site in Western Australia. Whether you’re a tradesperson, labourer, apprentice, or an owner builder stepping onto your own site, you’ll need construction induction training before you begin.
Regulatory framework
White Card requirements in Western Australia sit within the WorkSafe WA safety framework. The construction induction unit CPCWHS1001 must be delivered by a Registered Training Organisation (RTO).

White Card covers site safety, but it’s only one part of getting ready to run a project. Many WA owner builders also complete the WA Owner Builder Course to understand responsibilities, approvals, permits and compliance expectations before lodging applications.
If you’re not sure which to do first, start with White Card for site access, then complete owner-builder training before lodging applications.

Frequently asked questions (White Card WA)

These are the most common questions WA learners ask before enrolling.

Q1 — How long does the White Card take in WA?

Most learners complete the online learning in around 2–6 hours, depending on experience and learning pace, then complete a 15–30 minute live Zoom practical assessment. The overall timeframe also depends on assessment availability and business-hour handling.
