This course is sold as self-paced study, but yes — we also deliver it live. Aegentra runs instructor-led cohorts with a certified PECB trainer, and in-person classroom sessions at our Melbourne and Sydney CBD offices. For enterprise teams we deliver on-site at your office on a schedule that suits you. Live and in-person pricing depends on cohort size and the standard, so it is quoted rather than listed — email Academy@aegentra.com.au with your headcount and preferred dates and we will come back with a quote.
Lead Implementer trains you to build and run an OH&S management system using PECB’s IMS2 methodology. Lead Auditor trains you to independently assess one, using ISO 19011 audit methodology and the ISO/IEC 17021-1 certification process. Implementers build; auditors form an opinion. Holding both opens the PECB Master credential pathway.
Self-Study at $975 + GST gives you the official PECB slide deck and course material to work through at your own pace. The eLearning option at $1,055 + GST adds recorded video lectures and scenario-based quizzes over the same material. Both include the exam and the free retake, and both lead to the identical PECB credential.
It depends on attested experience. Provisional Auditor requires none. Auditor requires two years of professional experience with one in OH&S management plus 200 hours of audit activities. Lead Auditor requires five years with two in OH&S management plus 300 hours. Senior Lead Auditor requires ten years with seven in OH&S management plus 1,000 hours. All require signing the PECB Code of Ethics.
Seven competency domains: fundamental principles and concepts of an OH&S MS; ISO 45001 requirements across Clauses 4 to 10; fundamental audit concepts and principles; preparing an ISO 45001 audit; conducting the audit; closing the audit; and managing an ISO 45001 audit programme.
No. The course teaches audit principles from the ground up under ISO 19011, including evidence-based and risk-based auditing. Existing audit experience in another management system scheme will make the material faster to absorb, since the method transfers directly.
No. An ISO 45001 audit assesses conformity to the standard, not compliance with WHS legislation — those are different judgements made by different parties. The standard does require organisations to identify and evaluate their legal and other requirements, so an auditor will test whether that process exists and works, without ruling on legal compliance itself.
Yes. Certification and examination fees are included in the course price, covering a first exam attempt plus one free retake within 12 months.
Thirty-one CPD credits — an attestation of course completion is issued on finishing the course. These count toward the CPD requirements of the Australian Institute of Health and Safety, ISACA, IIA Australia, and other professional bodies on submission.
