Swimming Pool and Spa Barrier Inspection training

SPASAVIC is delighted that our preferred Registered Training Organisation, Masters in Building Training (MIBT), has been endorsed by the Victorian Building Authority (VBA) to deliver the new Victorian Swimming Pool and Spa Barrier Inspection training course VBAISP2020 Building Inspector (Pool Safety).

The total cost of this course is $2,990 with RPL set at $1,495 and is GST-exempt. You can enrol in this course for an initial deposit of $500.

This investment includes one year’s membership with SPASAVIC as a Pool Barrier Inspector Member, with membership being optional once you have completed the course and have attained registration with the VBA. In Victoria, recent new legislation dictates that owners of land where a swimming pool or spa is located must have registered their swimming pool and/or spa by 1 November 2020 with their relevant council.

Pool and spa owners are also required to obtain and lodge a compliance certificate for the safety of their pool or spa barrier every 4 years.

Once a pool or spa is registerd, the local council will notify owners of the due date for the first certificate of pool barrier compliance. Owners are required to arrange an inspection and lodge the certificate with their local council by the due date.

For more information and enrolments, visit MIBT’s website by clicking here.

Only an appropriately registered building surveyor, building inspector (pool safety) or municipal building surveyor can certify the compliance of a pool or spa safety barrier and issue the compliance certificate.
