“I have just completed two days training at Alertforce in Melbourne Victoria. The courses were Remove non friable asbestos and Supervise non friable. I found the trainer Mick Webb to be very professional, very knowledgeable in this area and easy to learn from. I have taken away more than expected. I am a trainer/ assessor myself but in civil construction. We had a good size class which Mick was able to keep everyone interested which is a hard thing to do. I highly recommend Alertforce to anyone interested in these courses. Thanks Mick”

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.
