Hopefully Members have seen recent updates from the QBCC about the option to go digital with certain license classes.
Starting later this year the QBCC, in partnership with the Queensland Government, will begin to roll-out digital licences via the Queensland Digital Licence app. This initiative will make using and renewing a QBCC digital licence simpler, faster and more secure.
The initiative includes the following license types:
Pool Safety Inspector and Site Supervisor Licences
Plumbing and Drainage, Fire Occupational, Mechanical Licences
Certifier, Contractor, Nominee Supervisor Licence
Why go digital with your QBCC licence
As a licensee, even if you’re rarely asked to show your licence, having it at your fingertips proves you’re ready, professional and qualified to do the job.
No more digging through the glovebox or waiting for a replacement card – your digital licence is always with you on your phone; updated in almost real time, secure and ready to show when needed.
Going digital is optional, but the benefits of going digital include:
Convenience – your QBCC licence(s) stored on your phone, always with you.
Peace of mind through security – built-in security features mean your digital QBCC licence is official and protected.
Saves time – renewals and changes updated in real time, once processed, no more waiting for the post.
Know your status. Whether it’s active, up for renewal or expired, you’ll know right away.
Store multiple licences in one place. If you hold more than one QBCC licence, they’re all stored together.
Planned release dates
The QBCC digital licences are being rolled out in stages. The QBCC will get in touch with you closer to the release date of your licence class and let you know when you can start using it.
