No, it does not. A Construction Diploma course is essentially the next level up from a Certificate IV. Some institutions require a Certificate IV qualification before a student can begin their Diploma course. The Certificate IV in Building and Construction covers foundation skills, and the Diploma of Building and Construction (Building) focuses on the hammer-and-nails skills required for licensed builders. Typically, one or both of these qualifications are required for a builder’s license, depending on your state regulator’s requirements. The Diploma of Building and Construction (Management) (CPC50320) is designed for tradies and supervisors ready to take the next step in their career and move into Project Management roles.
