White Cards become void if no construction work is carried out in two consecutive years or more.[2] This White Card Course will replace a range of state systems operating different coloured cards (Blue, Green, Red) and regulatory bodies. Every State in Australia now operate with the Nationally Recognized White Card. The White Card Online can be issued in Western Australia and Queensland. However this White Card is mutually recognized and accepted in all states of Australia.
