Blue construction card
 
Hi,

I've been told that a blue construction card is needed in QLD to work in the trade. Is there an equivalent for WA?
I am trying to understand what is need to get an ACMA open cabler registration. So far (i think) i have found out that i would need to get an OH+S certificate and have relevent experience in the structured cabling and fibre optic trade which i have from the UK. Should this enable me to qualify for the ACMA registration?
Would i need to do the CAB-08 structured cabling and CAB-10 fibre optic courses as well and if so before or after the ACMA?

Hope this makes sense :confused:

Thanks.
Looks like the blue card is the OH+S. I have a communications tech supervisor CSCS acreditation so that shouldn't be any trouble.
If anyone can help with the rest i'd be very grateful.

I did this training on the net so I suppose you could do the course while in the UK. It takes about an hour.
