Traffic Controller Qualifications

As with all traffic control jobs, current industry qualifications are an essential requirement for employment with TCMAP. Below is a summary of the relevant qualifications we expect from prospective employees.

New Applicants, or those returning to the field, may have seen some confusing information about ticket qualifications. The codes for these qualifications do change from time to time, especially in 2015 when the RMS introduced a new nationally-recognised framework. To find more information about older qualifications, and their new equivalents, you can search the National Training Register for current and former codes.

Below is a quick rundown of the current qualifications. For further information, you can visit the SafeWork NSW page on Traffic Control Work Training, or contact an authorised training provider.

Please note, TCMAP itself is not a training provider. To find a valid training provider, check your local area or download a list from the RMS website.

White Card (CPCWHS1001)

Required for safe work on construction sites, the White Card (formerly Green Card) is not directly related to traffic control. However, while it is possible to obtain traffic controller qualifications without a White Card, working in the industry is impossible without one. For this reason, traffic control trainers often provide White Card courses bundled in with traffic control training. All applicants for employment with TCMAP must be White Card certified.

Traffic Controller (RIISS00054)—(TCR)

This is the base level of training to become qualified as a traffic controller. Because the role of a traffic controller is an important duty for public and personal safety, this qualification is essential for any level of traffic control job. All applicants for traffic control jobs with TCMAP must, at minimum, hold this qualification in combination with a White Card.

Implement Traffic Control Plans (RIISS00055)—(IMP)

This qualification is required for a role which includes setting up signs and devices according to a TCP (traffic control plan). However, it does not qualify a person to create or modify traffic control plans. Applicants wishing to be considered for a team leader role should have this qualification in addition to their Traffic Controller skill set along with a White Card.

Prepare a Work Zone Traffic Management Plan (RIISS00056)—(PWZ)

This course builds the required skills to develop Traffic Management Plans/Traffic Control Guidance Schemes to professional, civil and legal standards. Applicants wishing to be considered for a Supervisor or Project Manager role are expected to have this qualification in addition to the previous skill sets including a White Card.

Additional Qualifications

As well as the above, applicants will benefit greatly from holding a current first aid certificate. Additionally, a valid driver’s license will be required for most positions with TCMAP.
