What You'll Learn

Many common building materials—including concrete, brick, tiles, mortar, and engineered stone—contain crystalline silica. When these materials are cut, drilled, or ground, fine silica dust can become airborne and easily inhaled by workers nearby.

Across Australia, growing numbers of tradespeople and stonemasons are being diagnosed with silicosis and other silica‑related diseases, which is why regulators have made silica awareness training a priority and why it matters so much for you and your team.

Whether you’re on the tools or managing a team involved in cutting, drilling, grinding, or polishing engineered stone, this training is legally required to keep you safe and compliant on site.

Course Overview

Course Details

10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention​

Duration

Approximately 4 Hours

(plus assessment)

Delivery

Face-to-Face or Live Webinar

Both delivery formats are led by experienced trainers and provide the same nationally recognised learning outcomes, ensuring participants gain practical knowledge they can apply immediately in workplaces where silica exposure risks are present in order to ensure exposure remains below the workplace exposure standard (0.05 mg/m³ TWA).

Certificate

Outcome

On successful completion, participants receive a Statement of Attainment in 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention, a nationally recognised qualification issued by AlertForce (RTO 91826).

Why does this qualification matter? Because only the 10830NAT course meets accredited training standards outlined by Safe Work Australia. Many “silica awareness” courses online are not nationally accredited and may not satisfy workplace compliance requirements.

AlertForce even delivers the full nationally recognised 10830NAT via live trainer-led webinars—giving you flexible, accredited training without compromising on quality or compliance.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Silica awareness training is now mandatory in the ACT and NSW and strongly recommended under WHS laws in other states and territories. Legislated requirements are especially strong in ACT (since October 2023) and NSW (since September 2024) for all workers cutting, drilling, grinding, or polishing silica-containing materials. These requirements reflect growing concern from regulators about the health impacts of respirable crystalline silica exposure, particularly in industries such as construction, engineered stone fabrication, mining, and quarrying.

The 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention is a nationally recognised qualification that meets formal compliance requirements. Non-accredited courses may raise awareness but do not issue an official Statement of Attainment or meet regulatory obligations in the ACT and NSW.

Yes. AlertForce offers the course through live, trainer-led webinars, allowing you to complete accredited silica awareness training online from anywhere in Australia. Live webinar delivery allows participants to complete the course remotely while still interacting with an experienced trainer. This format provides flexibility for workers and businesses that may not be located near a training centre while ensuring the course remains compliant with national training requirements.

The course typically takes around 4 hours to complete, including assessment components.

Fees vary depending on delivery mode and group size. Contact AlertForce on 1800 900 222 for a tailored quote or to confirm ACT funding eligibility.
