It is important you understand that EWP training itself does not give you your high-risk licence. However, assuming you successfully complete your EWP assessment, you have 60 days to apply (and be assessed) for your High-Risk Work Licence.

Currently, you have to renew your licence within 12 months of its expiry; otherwise, your High-Risk Work Licence can’t be renewed. You will have to repeat this formal training course and re-apply for your licence or re-enrol in the course again and be supervised by somebody who has a current licence for the same class.
