Certified Handler Qualification

Certified Handlers must hold a Controlled Substance Licence, which we’ll help you obtain after you’ve passed the exam, gained practical work experience and met the formal requirements for certification. We offer ongoing advice, support, training, and work opportunities to students.

Certification is not automatic. Firework Professionals reserve the right to screen training applicants and to withhold qualifications for unsuitable candidates. Candidates are police vetted for suitability to hold a CSL. The age limit for courses is 17 years.

Firework Professionals provide distance training and certification for people wanting to sell retail fireworks during the sales period of Nov 2nd to 5th. There’s a written exam to complete, with an 80% pass rate required to obtain the qualification, valid for five years.
