Licensing/Regulatory Information

Licensing , legislative , regulatory or certification considerations The four unit set ICTCBL2005A, ICTCBL2006A, ICTCBL2008A and ICTCMP2022A that meets the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) requirements for Cabling Provider Rules (CPR) restricted registration, is generally used as a part of a more specialised customer cabling qualification. This set is regarded as more suitable for new entrants where limited or no industry experience has been obtained and forms the major part of specialised qualifications such as ICT20310 Certificate II in Telecommunications Cabling. All training programs must be conducted with reference to the regulatory regime of the prevailing statutory authority (currently ACMA). National Code of Practice for Induction for Construction Work Some cabling and installation work may fall within the definition of construction work. If so, people entering the construction site are required to complete the general induction training program specified by the National Code of Practice for Induction Training for Construction Work (Australian Safety Compensation Council, May 2007). Achievement of the unit CPCCOHS1001A Work safely in the construction industry from the CPC08 Construction and Plumbing Services Integrated Framework Training Package fulfils this requirement.
