In NSW, if the value of the work is over $10,000 then yes, you need an owner builder permit and that means doing the state government required course.
More great news! The research has been done for you. We critiqued 12 owner builder course providers across Australia and are super confident to recommend Absolute Education.
Simply click on ‘Get Started' below, complete a few basic details and either the lovely Gemma or Peter will complete the pieces of the puzzle for you.
NOTE: The OB Course cost is $185.00 payable when you pass (psst, everyone passes!).
Due to changes in legislation made on the 19th July 2019 Â by WorkSafe WA in conjunction with Safework NSW means you're no longer eligible to complete your White Card course online (only possible in WA).
If you go with another provider, please make sure whoever you go with is NOT offering the course online. Seriously, it's illegal.
If you're at the start of the process, we highly recommend you contact your local Council planning office (see link below).
