australian red cross or st johns costs about 80bucks and takes 4 to 6 hrs
must be australian as they are complete friggin anal about it being one of their courses, apparently aussie hearts must beat differntly,
well thats what told them at the safety office
o and whilst we are on this one
they dont understand sarcasm ;)

thanks steve ' o:

It's much better that they don't understand, you can laugh away on the inside whilst they ranting on about rules and regs. although when you crack an absolute blinder and their face never alters and no body is there to appreicate your humor, you think why do i bother

note thisis for qld i assumed that other states where the same ??

any one out there who can let us know in regards nsw vic sa and wa ???

Re: Cpr, which course
 

i have looked into license application for WA and SA. no mention of CPR courses etc. WA is artc plus pass on practical and theory, SA is artc plus pass on regs. nothing on forms about CPR.

hubby just applied for his licence in adelaide and he done his cpr course but didnt need to just wiring regs and artc certificate so cpr not needed in SA, well the bloke at ocba where he went said it wasnt needed :)

Re: Cpr, which course
 

Yes mate you need your cpr in Queensland, i was told to do my LVR aswell but i dont think you have to have it? My asseser told me to do it anyway???

Re: Cpr, which course
 

LVR??

Whats that then :confused:

What about a CSCS type saftey card is one of these required on sites in Oz?

How much do these cost, is there a waiting list for the course / exams does anyone know? (cannot imagine there is but thought i would ask anyhoo to cover all bases)

Re: Cpr, which course
 

i think the blue card is the equivalent to the CSCS maybe someone can confirm.

Re: Cpr, which course
 

LVR -low voltage rescue

And yes blue card is your safety card for working on site!:)
