Continuing Professional Development for Builders and Swimming Pool Builders

Individuals licensed as a builder or swimming pool builder under the Home Building Act 1989 are required to undertake Continuing Professional Development (CPD) each year as a condition of licence renewal.

In late 2006, an independent evaluation recommended changes to the CPD operating in the NSW home building industry. As a result of these changes builders and pool builders now undertake CPD by doing courses or learning activities delivered by training providers and industry experts under an improved and simplified program.

Since the 1st of January 2008 the CPD has been operating more simply under a 12-point per year system. Illawarra ITeC currently runs workshops that can be undertaken to gain the points required to remain complient under the CPD guidelines. To see a list of workshops available please visit our workshops and seminars page.
