Open Class Site Supervisor (QLD)

This streamlined 4-unit package is drawn from the nationally recognised CPCBC60220 Advanced Diploma of Building and Construction (Management) and is specifically designed for construction professionals seeking the QBCC Open Class Site Supervisor licence in Queensland. Unlike the full Advanced Diploma (10 units), this focused pathway delivers only the technical units required by QBCC for open-class site supervision credentials.

The Open Class Site Supervisor licence authorises holders to supervise building work across ALL building classes (1-10), ALL construction types (A, B, C), and buildings of unlimited height and complexity—including high-rise residential towers, major commercial developments, hospitals, educational facilities, and large-scale industrial projects. This represents the highest tier of site supervision licensing available in Queensland.

Site Supervisors operate as employees who supervise building work under their employer's QBCC contractor licence. This distinguishes them from Builder Contractors who hold their own licence and operate independent businesses. For experienced professionals who prefer employment over business ownership, the Site Supervisor pathway offers the full scope of open-class work without the financial and insurance requirements of contractor licensing.

Upon successful completion, graduates hold the technical qualification required for QBCC Open Class 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.
