Course content

The High Voltage Switching Operations Refresher course has been developed by industry professionals to re-validate and refresh participants competency in relation to High Voltage (HV) activities. The HV refresher course meets the requirements of the Guidelines for the safe management of high voltage (HV) installations in WA.

It is recommended that this course be completed every 2-3 years as per industry standard. With a blended learning approach, learners will be updated on legislation changes, industry practices and will be able to validate their skills and knowledge through the theory and practical assessments.

Successful completion will provide students and employers with a verification that participants meet the required competency levels to safely carry out High Voltage Switching.

Individuals in WA may be eligible to claim a Construction Training Fund (CTF) subsidy for the High Voltage Switching Operation course through a refund arrangement. The subsidy may be available via submission of a paid invoice and statement of attainment, submitted directly to the CTF. 

Companies may be eligible to claim the CTF subsidy for their employees if they are captured in the CTF levy scheme.The Constructions Training Fund provides funding support for training eligible workers in the construction industry.

We acknowledge the support of the Construction Training Fund in reducing the costs of training for eligible workers.
