“Fantastic from start to finish. Went at my own pace and the support was there 24/7 with my trainer. Even after passing, the trainer allowed me to contact him if I had further questions during my career”.

Frequently asked questions

If you still have questions, our team will be happy to help. Please reach out at info@everthought.edu.au.

Can I use this qualification to get my builder's licence?

Yes, these qualifications are designed to meet licensing requirements in most Australian states and territories. However, you’ll also need to meet experience requirements and other criteria set by your state’s building authority.

How long will it take me to complete my course while working full-time?


Most students complete the Certificate IV in 12-18 months and the Diplomas in 18-24 months while working full-time. You can study at your own pace – some finish faster, others take a bit longer.

Will I get the same qualification as someone who studied on campus?

Absolutely. Your qualification is exactly the same nationally recognised certificate or diploma, regardless of how you studied. Employers and licensing bodies don’t distinguish between online and on-campus graduates.

What if I need help with assignments or don't understand something?

You’re not alone. You’ll have access to experienced trainers via email and live online sessions. Plus our student support team can help with technical issues or study planning whenever you need it.

Can I really get qualified online without hands-on practical work?

Yes. Our online courses focus on the theory, regulations, and management skills you need. You’ll already have the hands-on experience from your work on-site. We’re adding the business knowledge, codes and standards, and project management skills to get you qualified.

Building 4 / 460-492 Beaudesert Road, Salisbury Queensland 4107, Australia.
