Nationally Recognised and Accredited Certificate
Our Diploma of Building & Construction (CPC50220) qualification is recognised across Australia.
Builder’s Licences are only recognised in the state you registered with, so you will need to apply for a new licence if you want to work in a new state.
However, you will not need to repeat the Diploma of Building and Construction, since the qualification is accredited no matter where you choose to work in the country.
