Who should attend a NRSWA Streetworks Operative or Supervisor Reassessment?
If your streetworks card is about to or has already expired, you will need to take a NRSWA Streetworks reassessment course.
You are not able to work on a streetworks site with expired certificates. You can take reassessments at any time before your certificates expire and the remaining time left before expiry is now added to your new card. For example, if you take your reassessment with 6 months still remaining, it will be added to your new card when you receive it, resulting in 5 years and 6 months on your card expiry.
