Course Overview
This WHS Awareness Course developed and narrated by Paul Chivers, one of Australia’s leading WHS and risk advisors, is designed for workers, supervisors, and officers who want practical, up-to-date training aligned with Australian WHS legislation.
This course distils decades of experience into a short, sharp learning experience that builds legal confidence and practical insight.
Whether learners are new to WHS or looking to sharpen their understanding, this course delivers what matters most: clarity, relevance, and action.
By choosing this course, learners can:
- Build legal confidence by learning what the WHS Act and Regulations require of you, and how to apply it day-to-day.
- Understand how safety duties, risk controls, and reporting systems actually work in practice.
This course helps build a strong foundation for those considering a formal qualification such as a Certificate IV in Work Health and Safety. It also serves as a legally meaningful course completion as it may support WHS due diligence, particularly for Officers and PCBUs, as part of a documented system of compliance.
