Melbourne’s extensive stock of older homes, commercial buildings and industrial facilities means asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) remain a significant workplace hazard across Victoria. From renovations in established inner-city suburbs to maintenance work on factories, schools, warehouses and commercial properties, workers regularly encounter environments where asbestos-containing materials may still be present.
The nationally recognised 11084NAT Course in Asbestos Awareness helps Melbourne workers identify asbestos-containing materials, understand associated health risks and apply safe work practices when asbestos may be present. Delivered by AlertForce, this course aligns with WorkSafe Victoria guidance and supports employers in meeting their obligations under Victoria’s occupational health and safety legislation.
Course Overview
What You'll Learn
The 11084NAT Course in Asbestos Awareness provides essential training on identifying, managing and working safely around asbestos-containing materials in Australian workplaces. With many Melbourne homes, commercial buildings and industrial facilities constructed before asbestos was banned, this course equips workers with practical knowledge to identify asbestos-containing materials, understand exposure risks and follow appropriate control measures before work commences.

VIC Requirement
Under the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 (Vic) and Occupational Health and Safety Regulations 2017, employers must provide employees with the information, instruction, training and supervision necessary to perform their work safely. Workers involved in construction, maintenance, demolition and refurbishment activities may encounter asbestos-containing materials in buildings and structures throughout Victoria.
The 11084NAT Course in Asbestos Awareness supports these obligations by helping workers identify asbestos-containing materials, understand asbestos registers and management plans, recognise health risks and follow safe work procedures when asbestos may be present.
Workers seeking further guidance can also read our articles on when asbestos was used in homes and how to identify it and the new laws around asbestos.

“Did a CPR refresher. Reminded me of the things I'd missed or forgotten about. Got it done and got out. Highly recommend. Of the 10 or so of these I've done, this is the first that actually felt like a useful refresher and not just trying to stay awake to check the boxes.”
“The AlertForce course for Enter and Work in Confined Spaces was very comprehensive and informative. John is a very experienced worker and instructor, which enhanced the training experience for all of the class, he answered all our questions from both the health and safety, and legal perspective, and would also use his own real-world experiences to demonstrate the answers. Thank you AlertForce Team and John, I'll recommend your courses to anybody who's looking for training.”
“Adam did a great job on silica and asbestos training, he was very thorough and the course well presented”
“Thank you for a great First Aid and CPR course. The training was well organised, informative, and easy to follow. I appreciated the hands-on practice,theories and clear explanations. I feel much more confident in my first aid skills. Thank you for a positive learning experience.l definitely recommend to anyone its amazing experience thanks Alana for taking us through the course”
“Rahul Sharman is the man! Highly recommended training for asbestos awareness.”
“Registered training organisation. Provided good training on Asbestos awareness”
“Great training. Matt explained the silica and asbestos topics clearly and made it easy to understand. Very useful and relevant for site work.”
“Great training RTO for white card”
“Had my white card training today and it was an excellent experience all round. Being the only female in the group I was nervous at first, but everyone was so friendly (I don't think I touched a door once today lol) and welcoming. The instructor (shout out to Craig) was really interesting and friendly and made the course really engaging, time flew by! I 100% recommend these guys and will be going back soon to complete my working at heights certification.”
“Helped with learning new skills and techniques and learning stuff to go out to the force into the traffic control area”
“I was very nervous about doing my forklift training but Craig our instructor made me feel comfortable and confident. I highly recommend Alert Force for training. If you do your forklift training I hope you get Craig he is great to work with!”
“Fantastic, open and friendly atmosphere. Craig Hindle was knowledgeable and approachable. 10/10 Forklift Training, couldn't recommend better.”
“My instructor Craig Hindle is the best. He is very professional and high skilled on his expertise especially teaching on how to drive a forklift. I am very grateful that he is my instruction. If you want to get your forklift licence, I highly recommended tp enrol at Alertforce”
“Great experience completing my forklift course with Alert Force. The training was clear and practical. Instructor John Sanderson was very professional, patient, and easy to learn from. Highly recommend”
“The training was clear and easy to follow, also the assessor was very helpful and made everyone comfortable. Highly recommending Alert force for anyone needing their White Card.”
“Did my white card with trainer Craig, he was awesome, took time to explain a couple things for us slower learners, didn't over complicate the course was very straight Would recommend 100%”
“Kevin was really approachable and had a great sense of humour which provided a relaxed environment to learn in. I appreciated how he kept everyone engaged. Kevin was really good at applying theory into practice and allowing us to share our own WHS / HSR experiences so we could learn from each other. A big thank you to Kevin.”
“Did my Whitecard, Asbestos, Silica, and Working at Heights. All classes were informative, and succinct. The instructors were great, especially John, who did my working safely at heights.”
“Excellent course, I'm saying this because unless like most courses that are just plain boring. This course was run By Matt who I think is a great educator, he explains information in a way that's not just educational but also relevant to today's work practices, his insight and depth of knowledge shows his years on both subjects like asbestos and silica and how dangerous both can be, I'm now armed with the knowledge of how to treat these hazards and also how to prevent a problem that can be eliminated, I definitely recommend this course for anybody who wants to learn about asbestos and silica.”
“Just completed my forklift course with Craig, highly recommend”
“I'm really satisfied with the way the class was lead simple and easy to remember for the questions on the theory test. I'm really grateful that I'm given another chance to do train and do the practical test again which I didn't pass on the first time. So that I'm prepared to use the forklift without making mistakes when I do get my licence as well as work using the forklift.”
“Best Training Centre. I have done my forklift training from here. The trainer named "JOHN SANDERSON" is the best trainer to me. Recommended this place with 5 stars”
