The course is delivered face to face and includes mandatory practical training and assessments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

People that do not directly undertake temporary traffic management roles at worksites, such as parking inspectors, surveillance officers, grader operators and verge mowers etc. But they have previously gained BWTM accreditation and are finding it difficult to provide evidence of active industry engagement when applying for re-accreditation.

In these cases, rather than re-sitting the full BWTM course, they may sit the refresher course and gain a more restrictive BWTM Non-Practitioner accreditation without the need to provide evidence of industry experience.

A BWTM Non-Practitioner level of accreditation, does come with restrictions, as it is not a full BWTM level of accreditation. You will only be accredited to implement signs and devices associated with short term low impact works, see AGTTM Part 5 and section 8 of the MRWA Traffic Management for Works on Roads Code of Practice, that form part of a TMP.

Example of signage: Worker (symbolic), GRADER AHEAD, ROAD PLANT AHEAD or ROADWORK AHEAD.

If you have achieved your Basic Worksite Traffic Management accreditation 3 years ago, and since then have not been actively using accreditation, however, it is a requirement of your role to ensure this accreditation is kept current.

Due to many not being able to provide documentary evidence, Main Roads WA introduced BWTM Non-Practitioner pathway.

Unfortunately, not. If you wish to retain your Traffic Controller accreditation you will be required to supplied the applicable evidence of active engagement in the industry.

If you hold a current BWTM and TC and you complete the BWTM Non-Practitioner course, your Traffic Controller component will not be able to be used once it expires without complete the full Traffic Controller course.

You are able to actively use your accreditations until they expire. We encourage you to work with a Traffic Management Contractor and or your employer to obtain the evidence prior to your reaccreditation course.

What Our Customers Say About Us

I choose AusQ Training for the assistance with providing a refresher course for my AWTM. They were able to offer flexibility of service. I would recommend others to AusQ Training within the construction industry seeking Traffic Management training services.

We reached out to AusQ Training as it is a contract requirement for our operators to obtain this license to perform works within 3m of a road. AusQ were able to offer the training the soonest. We now have the ability to expand the number of staff we can resource to serve our contract. I would recommend AusQ to others as it is fast access to training that meets requirements.
