TDT Training Australia does not issue the actual Construction Induction card. The card itself is issued by WorkCover Victoria. Once you have attended and successfully completed the assessment for your course, you will be issued with a Statement of Attainment that is valid for 60 days. By which time WorkCover should have issued you with the actual card (sent to your mailing address).
Applicants must demonstrate the basic language, literacy and numeracy required at this level. An LLN assessment is conducted at pre-enrolment to assess if you require support.
