No. OFT has confirmed that the passage of time alone does not require the 13 CPPSEC security units to be repeated.

However, CPP20218 must still be approved training for the relevant Queensland security provider licence functions at the time the person applies.

If the approved training requirements change in the future, previously completed training may no longer satisfy the licensing requirements.
