FAQ
Identify & Report Children at Risk — common questions
Is this course nationally recognised?
Yes. CHCPRT025 is a nationally recognised unit, delivered online and accredited under Australian child protection laws.
How long does it take?
Estimated completion time is around 5 hours — fully online and self-paced, with access for up to 6 months. You receive a same-day certificate on completion.
Who needs child protection training?
Anyone working with children and young people: teachers, childcare educators, healthcare professionals, community and youth workers, foster carers and sports coaches. For many roles it is a legal requirement.
Do I need any equipment?
You’ll need a device with a camera and audio (smartphone, tablet or webcam-equipped computer) for assessment tasks that require verbal explanations.
Does this course satisfy my employer’s or state’s child protection training requirement?
CHCPRT025 is commonly used to meet child protection training requirements across the education, care and community services sectors — check with your employer or regulator to confirm what’s required for your specific role.
Do I need the non-accredited Child Protection course instead of this one?
If your role specifically requires a Statement of Attainment for CHCPRT025, this is the right course. If you just need general awareness training, our non-accredited Child Protection Awareness course may be a more affordable option.
Is there an assessment, and what happens if I don’t pass?
There’s a short assessment at the end of the modules, including some verbal-response tasks. If you don’t pass on your first attempt, you can review the material and try again.
Do I get ongoing access to the course materials?
You’ll have access to the course materials for up to 6 months after enrolling.
How often do I need to renew CHCPRT025?
There’s no legislated expiry date, though your employer or regulator may require periodic refresher training as part of their own policies.
Do you offer this training for a whole school or organisation?
Yes. We can arrange group enrolment for schools, childcare centres and community organisations — contact us for details.
