Low-Rise Site Supervisor (QLD)

This focused 10-unit package is drawn from the nationally recognised CPCBC40120 Certificate IV in Building and Construction and is specifically designed for construction professionals seeking the QBCC Low-Rise Site Supervisor licence in Queensland. Rather than completing the full 19-unit Certificate IV, this pathway delivers the exact units QBCC requires for low-rise site supervision credentials.

The Low-Rise Site Supervisor licence authorises holders to supervise building work on Class 1 and 10 buildings (houses, sheds, carports), and Class 2-9 Type C buildings with a gross floor area not exceeding 2,000m². This covers the majority of residential construction in Queensland—single dwellings, duplexes, townhouses, small unit blocks, and low-rise commercial fit-outs.

Site Supervisors operate as employees who supervise building work under their employer's QBCC contractor licence. This pathway is ideal for experienced tradespeople and leading hands who want to step into a formal supervisory role without the financial and insurance requirements of contractor licensing. It's also a natural first step toward the full Certificate IV or Open Class Site Supervisor pathway.

Upon successful completion, graduates hold the technical qualification required for QBCC Low-Rise Site Supervisor licence application. Unlike the Builder Contractor licence, the Site Supervisor licence has no minimum experience requirement—completing these units is the key step to applying. Our 100% online delivery with flexible, self-paced study means you can achieve this qualification without stepping away from your on-site responsibilities.
