NRSWA Supervisor Reassessment Course (Street Works Renewal)
NRSWA Supervisor qualifications are valid for five years and when they expire, supervisors are no longer legally authorised to oversee street works on the public highway. This two-day reassessment course enables experienced supervisors to demonstrate continued competence across all relevant supervisor units and renew their Street Works Qualification Register (SWQR) registration for a further five years. It focuses on confirming existing knowledge and competence rather than delivering the full training programme from scratch.

• Assessment
Multiple-choice theory tests and observed practical assessments for each unit, designed to confirm continued competence rather than certify completion of the full training programme.
