Fairview and Master Builders have come together to develop the new SafeClad training programs to create the industry’s first accreditation service for aluminium panel installers. SafeClad addresses the challenges associated with combustible façades through education and training.

The new programs highlight the risks involved with the cladding of medium to high rise residential and commercial buildings, and deliver on the latest safe cladding practices for aluminium panels from the perspectives of installers, manufacturers and peak industry bodies.

Upon successful completion of the program, the installers will receive certification from Master Builders with a SafeClad accreditation and will also benefit from new skills and knowledge about Fairview’s fit-for-purpose cladding products.

Master Builders’ SafeClad programs currently include two structured programs:

Awareness Session

The 3-hour session taking place on Monday 23rd of July 2018, is for commercial builders, developers, project managers, architects and engineers who are engaged in construction projects where aluminium-based cladding is, or may be, installed.

Assessment Session

This 1-day program is open to installers or subcontractors who are currently working with aluminium cladding panels. The session will take place in a simulated environment observed by an MBA Assessor and there will also be written knowledge questions. This program is currently available on Monday 13th, Monday 20th and Monday 27th of August 2018.
