Certificate IV in Civil Construction Supervision

This course equips current employees in the civil construction industry with leadership and management skills to provide effective leadership in the workplace.

Learning from industry professionals, you'll develop specialist skills and knowledge in:

• leadership
• risk management and worksite safety
• supervising civil works
• operational plan implementation
• tendering
• civil structure maintenance and inspection.

Existing workers with industry experience can also gain formal recognition for their current skills and competencies in this course through a combination of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and gap training.

To be awarded the RII40715 Certificate IV in Civil Construction Supervision, a student must successfully complete a total of twelve (12) units of competency, comprising of:

• five (5) core units, and;

• seven (7) elective units, of which:

• at least two (2) units must be selected from Group A;

• at least two (2) units must be selected from Group B, and;

• two (2) units may be selected from elsewhere within the RII Resources and Infrastructure Industry Training Package, or from another endorsed training package, or from an accredited course.

All elective units selected from outside this qualification must reflect current occupational and learning outcomes of this AQF qualification level as well as be approved by the Polytechnic.

You may be able to complete your qualification sooner through formal recognition of your existing skills. This is known as Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL).

To receive RPL, we assess your previous work, education and life experiences against recognised qualifications. Applications for RPL can be made prior to enrolling.
