Yes. In the ACT, the 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention is mandatory for all construction workers, alongside the White Card and Asbestos Awareness training. For other Australian states, it is the recommended Code of Practice training for workers who may be exposed to respirable crystalline silica.
The 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention typically takes around 4 hours to complete. It is delivered face to face in a structured classroom environment and covers the identification of silica-containing materials, health risks, legal requirements, and safe work practices to minimise exposure. In the ACT, this training is mandatory for most construction workers. In other Australian states, it is recommended for anyone who may be exposed to respirable crystalline silica in the workplace.
No prior qualifications are required. The Silica Awareness course is designed for workers of all experience levels, including apprentices, supervisors, tradespeople, and site workers. The course teaches fundamental, legally required knowledge, so beginners are welcome.
The ACT Building and Construction Industry Training Fund Authority (TFA) provides subsidies for approved training undertaken by eligible employers and workers in the construction sector. You may be eligible if:
If eligible, your course fee may be partially reimbursed. You or your employer will need to apply for the subsidy after completing the course.
The Silica Awareness certificate in most jurisdictions does not have a formal expiry date, but employers often require refresher training every 2–5 years to ensure knowledge remains current. Some regulatory bodies or worksites may specify their own renewal timeframes. In the ACT, while refresher training is not legally mandated, it is strongly recommended — especially for workers regularly exposed to potential silica-containing materials.
