Course Overview

CPCCDE4008 – Supervise Asbestos Removal gives participants the skills and knowledge to supervise the removal of asbestos containing material (ACM) across domestic, commercial, demolition, construction, and other sites. The course covers developing and implementing an Asbestos Removal Control Plan (ARCP), overseeing site preparation and worker induction, coordinating air monitoring with a licensed asbestos assessor, supervising the removal and decontamination processes, and managing all required documentation and regulatory notifications.
This unit is required for all supervisors of ACM removal and applies to both friable (Class A) and non-friable (Class B) removal operations. Completing this course is a required step toward becoming a nominated supervisor under an asbestos removal licence, however it does not in itself result in a nominated supervisor approval — WorkSafe WA must also assess that you meet the relevant industry experience requirements.
Training is delivered by experienced industry trainers at our facility or on-site across Western Australia.
Course Details
Certification
Participants who successfully complete all training and assessment requirements will be issued a Statement of Attainment for CPCCDE4008 – Supervise Asbestos Removal by Paratus Training (RTO 45274).
This Statement of Attainment is a required training component for individuals seeking to be approved as a nominated supervisor under an asbestos removal licence in Western Australia. The occupational licence for asbestos removal supervision is issued by WorkSafe WA — not by Paratus Training. Licence approval requires both this training and evidence of relevant industry experience as assessed by WorkSafe WA.
Please note: Completing this course does not automatically result in a nominated supervisor approval or permission to supervise asbestos removal. You must also satisfy WorkSafe WA's industry experience requirements. Contact WorkSafe WA or visit their website for current licensing requirements before enrolling.
