Book NowMany 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.
10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention
Approximately 4 Hours
(plus assessment)
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).
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.
AlertForce delivers the 10830NAT silica awareness training across Australia, including:
Face-to-face classroom and live webinar options are available, allowing participants to complete the training wherever they’re based.
If you’re in the ACT, you may be eligible for government funding. Call 1800 900 222 to check your eligibility before enrolling.
AlertForce understands both the regulations and the reality of life on site and backs you and your team with support every step of the way. By training with AlertForce, you can be confident your silica awareness qualification will stand up on site and in compliance checks.
AlertForce has trained thousands of workers across construction, mining, and manufacturing sectors to meet legislated safety requirements. Whether you’re a PCBU needing to meet mandatory obligations or an individual tradesperson protecting your health and livelihood, we make compliance simple, accessible, and effective.
FAQ
Got questions? We’ve got answers. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, call us on 1800 900 222.
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.
