New experience requirements for certificates of competence

New experience requirements for new applicants for certificates of competence commenced on 1 April 2021 and are available on our website and are published in the Guide.

A revised log book for experience and mine visits will help applicants compile details of experience under the new requirements. They can be entered into the new online application form which will be available through our Resources Regulator portal in June.

If you require further specific guidance contact us at mca@planning.nsw.gov.au or  02 4063 6461.
