Licence & Regulatory Requirements

In Queensland, the requirement for Fire Safety Advisers (FSAs) to complete refresher training every three years is stipulated in Section 34 of the Building Fire Safety Regulation 2008 (QLD):

Section 34 Appointment of fire safety advisers for high occupancy buildings

(1) Subject to subsections (3) and (4), the occupier of a high occupancy building must appoint a person who holds a current building fire safety qualification as the fire safety adviser for the building.

(6) In this section – current building fire safety qualification means a building fire safety qualification issued within the last 3 years.

It is important to note that while refresher training for this course is every 3 years, if you are a Fire Safety Advisor who also serves as a Fire Warden or Chief Warden within your workplace, you should complete separate refresher training for your Fire Warden or Chief Fire Warden duties to stay up to date with industry requirements.

Course Price $650.00

Fees include all assessments and resources needed to complete the course.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is not available for the Fire Safety Advisor Refresher course due to statutory and safety-critical requirements. Completing the full refresher ensures all participants maintain up-to-date knowledge and skills in line with Queensland legislation and industry standards.
