CPD - Legal Requirements

NSW Fair Trading requires that all licensed builders undertake Continuing Professional Development (CPD) each year as a condition of licence renewal.

CLICK HERE to view the specific CPD Requirements on NSW Fair Trading's website.

In summary, all licensed builders are required by law to earn 12 CPD Points in each 12 month period, and builders who hold a three year licence will have to demonstrate that they have earned 36 CPD Points in that three year period.

A failure to comply with CPD will most likely result in your builder’s licence being suspended or cancelled by NSW Fair Trading.

Our wide range of Online CPD Courses allow you to easily comply with your compulsory CPD requirements at an affordable cost while minimising the time you spend away from running your building business.

Builders CPD Online is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO ID 91528) under the Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) 2015, and our trainers have been involved in CPD training for NSW Builders since 2004.
