Advanced Scaffolding Course

The advanced scaffolding course (CPCCLSF4001) is the final and highest level of the scaffolding qualification pathway in Australia, covering hung scaffolds, suspension scaffolds, cantilevered hoisting platforms, and scaffold structures in confined and restricted spaces - alongside the full range of intermediate and advanced techniques required for complex construction projects. You must hold a valid SI licence before enrolling.

Shamrock Training in Northgate Brisbane delivers the SA licence with a mix of classroom theory and hands-on practical assessment. On completion, you are qualified to perform scaffolding work at the most complex level on any Australian worksite.

  • What career opportunities can an Advanced Scaffolding Licence support?

    An Advanced Scaffolding Licence can help workers move into more complex scaffolding roles, including large-scale construction, shutdowns, infrastructure projects, tunnelling, high-rise work, and supervisory pathways. It is suited to scaffolders who want to expand their capabilities and take on more advanced site responsibilities.

  • Is there a licence application fee after the course?

    Yes. After successfully completing your assessment, you will need to apply directly to Workplace Health and Safety Queensland for your licence. A separate government application fee applies, and your application must be submitted within the required timeframe after assessment.
