LVR and CPR Course in Brisbane and the Gold Coast
Our 2.5-hour LVR and CPR course is built for electricians, apprentices and anyone who acts as a safety observer for live electrical work. You'll practise rescuing a casualty from a live low voltage panel with a low voltage rescue kit, then complete your CPR assessment, all in one face-to-face session at Aspley, Rocklea or Ashmore.
Who needs an LVR and CPR certificate?
Queensland's electrical safety laws require workers who carry out electrical work to be competent in rescue and resuscitation, and safety observers must have been assessed as competent within the previous 12 months. That's why most employers and principal contractors ask to see current LVR and CPR before you start on site. Our course suits:
- Licensed electricians and electrical apprentices
- Solar and battery installers
- Safety observers for live electrical work
- Electrical contractors and maintenance staff
Certificates issued
You will be issued with one Statement of Attainment listing the following nationally recognised units of competency, emailed to you straight after the course:
- HLTAID009 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
- UETDRMP018 Perform rescue from a live low voltage panel
Looking for an older unit code?
UETDRMP018 is the current version of the LVR unit and replaces UETDRMP007, UETDRRF004 and UETTDRRF06. HLTAID009 replaces HLTAID001. If your employer asks for any of these older codes, this is the course you need. See our UETDRMP018 unit page for the full unit details.
Accreditation
Our CPR and LVR certificates are nationally recognised, so they're valid in every Australian state and territory.

LVR and CPR refresher
LVR and CPR need to be renewed every 12 months. Before yours is due, we'll send you an email and SMS with a discount code that takes $10 off your refresher, so it's $109 instead of $119. The refresher is the same 2.5-hour course, so there's nothing extra to prepare.
Frequently asked questions (FAQS)
How long does a CPR and LVR certificate last?
Industry practice is to renew both every 12 months, and safety observers must have been assessed within the last 12 months. Most employers won't accept LVR or CPR that is more than a year old.
How much does the LVR and CPR course cost?
Our LVR and CPR course is $119, which covers both units and both certificates. Refreshers booked with your reminder discount code are $109.
Is there any online study before the course?
No. All training and assessment happens face-to-face on the day. You're in and out in about 2.5 hours with nothing else to worry about.
How big are the classes?
We keep classes small: up to 12 students at Aspley and Rocklea, and up to 8 at Ashmore.
Can you run LVR training at our workplace?
Onsite group sessions can sometimes be arranged. Contact us with your location and group size and we'll let you know what's possible.
