This certificate will ensure that you have the practical skills, industry knowledge and formal qualifications to be able to work on a construction site.

Demolition licence is different from a builders licence. A demolition licence allows the holder to perform demolition work without supervision. If you have a registration and licence, people you work for can be assured that you are a reliable professional.

The Certificate IV in Demolition is aimed at team leaders, demolition supervisors, project managers and project engineers who oversee teams of demolition workers in the undertaking of specialist demolition work on large industrial, commercial, public or residential installations, structures or buildings that include chemical processing plants exceeding 15 metres in height. Some of the occupational titles that require this qualification, include Demolition supervisor or Site supervisor (demolition).

The Australian construction industry requires that training and assessment that leads to recognition of skills be undertaking in a real or closely simulated workplace environment. The Certificate IV in Demolition requires all competency units to be delivered in this context.
