- White Card Test Requirements and Pass Rate +
- The official White Card test typically requires a 100% pass rate, meaning you must answer all questions correctly. Our practice test follows this same standard to ensure you're fully prepared. The test covers critical safety knowledge that could save lives on construction sites, so thorough preparation is essential.
- Is my White Card valid in every Australian state? +
- Yes. The White Card is nationally recognised across all Australian states and territories. Each region has its own safety regulator (for example SafeWork NSW, WorkSafe Victoria, WorkSafe Queensland and others), but the core CPCCWHS1001 requirements are the same. Our practice questions are designed to match these common standards so you can use this test no matter which state you plan to work in.
- Is this the official White Card test? +
- This practice test is for educational purposes only. We are not affiliated with SafeWork, WorkSafe, or any Australian government agency. For official White Card certification, you must complete training through an accredited Registered Training Organisation (RTO). This practice test helps you prepare but does not replace official training.
