Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a manual handling certificate last

The validity of a manual handling certificate depends on your location in Australia. Some states do not impose an expiry date, while others recognise a 1 or 2 year validity period. However, most employers recommend refreshing your manual handling skills annually to ensure safe practices remain habitual. Skills Training College offers manual handling refresher courses to help you stay compliant and up to date.

Can you complete a manual handling course online?

No, manual handling training requires hands-on practice, which must be completed in person. While the theoretical component can be studied online, the practical element involves using manual handling equipment and demonstrating safe lifting techniques under supervision, which can only be effectively assessed face-to-face.

Why do I need a manual handling certificate?

A manual handling certificate verifies that you have received proper training in safe lifting, carrying, and moving techniques. This helps ensure workplace safety, reduces injury risks, and meets employer and legal requirements. Many workplaces, including healthcare, aged care, and construction, require this certification as a minimum standard for employment.

How is manual handling training assessed?

Assessment for manual handling training typically includes:

  • Practical Demonstration: Role-playing and simulated workplace scenarios.
  • Knowledge Assessment: Multiple-choice questions covering theoretical concepts.
  • Project Work: Group discussions on manual handling practices and risk assessments.
