Overview
Training
Train for your High Risk Work Licence
Adept trains personnel wishing to gain or renew their High Risk Work Licence.
The safe operation of boilers requires training under the Work Health & Safety Act. Therefore, any site that has a boiler and a person that has to operate it may require a High Risk Work License for its use.
Adept will come to your site and train you and/or your staff to operate boilers safely – we can even train on your specific boiler! We offer both face-to-face training and self-paced training, ensuring the comprehension of both theory and practice in a structured manner. Once your training is finalised, we can draw on a network of trusted worksafe Assessors to arrange the completion of your High Risk Work License assessment.
For those with prior training who are looking to get certified, we can complete recognition of prior training to help you get certified quickly.

Our High Risk Work Licence training process
Adept’s High Risk Licence Courses are separated into components for your successful progression.
- Theory: Held on site or other suitable venue. This component incorporates a theoretical assessment.
- Practical: The trainee completes the set tasks on boiler, as well as the Training Log Book. Initially, they are fully supervised by a licensed attendant, and then they progress with limited supervision.
- RTO Practical: Upon completion of set practical tasks and once the Training Book has been successfully reviewed, arrangement will be made for the RTO Trainer to complete a practical assessment on site.
- WorkCover Assessment: After successful completion of the RTO practical, the RTO organises for a WorkCover Assessor to conduct the final assessment (the trainee must provide 100 points of identification at the time of assessment).
- Unsuccessful Assessment: If unsuccessful, Adept may organise special assistance prior to a re-sitting of the Assessment.
- Successful Assessment: The RTO will have the application forms you need for a new card after you have completed your training and assessment. You will then take those forms to your nearest Australia Post office, as well as 100 points of ID. You will also need to bring with you a quality passport-sized photo of yourself with your name and date of birth printed on the back.
FAQ’s
Frequently Asked Questions
What is required for a trainee to get a High Risk Work Licence?
According to the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 High Risk Work Licences implemented by WorkCover NSW, trainees are required to complete a recognised training course and assessment by an RTO accredited by ASQA, prior to being assessed for a High Risk Work Licence by an accredited WorkCover Assessor.
What is covered under the new training legislation for Boiler Operators?
The classification of boilers for purposes of High Risk Work Licences has been changed to Standard and Advanced Boiler. Boiler Operators must be trained to cover items such as:
- Identification of boiler, controls, safety devices and system components;
- Proper start-up and shut down procedures;
- Periodic testing of safety devices;
- Routine visual inspection and record keeping (logs);
- In-house serviceable items and those items better left to a professional;
- Problem areas and possible corrective actions;
- Emergency reference with names and contact numbers.
How practically useful is the High Risk Work Licence training course?
The Adept Trainers are all experienced Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors and are well aware of the identified risks associated with the operation of high risk plant or equipment. This will help to ensure that the learning and assessment strategies will reflect the level of identified risk. The Trainers and Assessors hold all the necessary qualifications required by ASQA standards.
