Course FAQs

Practical answers to help you choose, prepare and book with confidence. Check your selected class and confirmation for the final details.

Choosing your course

What is the difference between RSA and RCG?

RSA focuses on responsible alcohol service; RCG focuses on responsible gambling services. The right combination depends on the duties you will perform, not simply the venue’s name.

Which national unit is listed for RSA?

Catch’s current RSA course lists SITHFAB021 Provide Responsible Service of Alcohol, alongside the NSW training requirements explained during the course.

What topics does RSA training cover?

Responsible service, checking identification, recognising intoxication, refusing service and reducing alcohol-related harm, with NSW-specific responsibilities covered in training.

Does finishing RSA automatically give me a physical competency card?

No. The training outcome and the card application are different steps. Follow the interim-certificate and Service NSW instructions supplied after successful completion.

What if I already have RSA from another state?

Check the NSW Government’s RSA and bridging guidance before paying for another full course. Tell Catch where and when you completed your existing training.

Should I book a full course to renew my current NSW RSA?

Do not assume so. NSW has a refresher pathway for eligible cardholders. Check your card and the current NSW Government instructions before enrolling.

Can I combine RSA with RCG or Barista Crash?

Catch has course bundles. Compare the current bundle options and available dates; practical barista skills training is different from the accredited RSA component.

Does RSA training guarantee a hospitality job?

No. It can support your readiness for relevant work, but employers make recruitment decisions and may require additional training, experience or permissions.

Getting ready & assessment

How do I check the course duration and delivery format?

Use the course summary and the exact class selected in secure booking. A listed class duration may not include pre-work, breaks, later assessment or additional bundle components.

What should I do before attending?

Read your booking confirmation and pre-course information. Complete any required preparation, check the venue and arrival time, and contact us early if a link or instruction is missing.

What ID and materials should I bring?

Follow the instructions for your specific course. Bring the required identification and any listed materials. Regulated courses such as White Card can require more than one photo ID.

Do I need a USI?

A Unique Student Identifier is generally needed for nationally recognised training, subject to applicable exemptions. Keep your name consistent across enrolment and identification, and use our USI information page if you need help.

Can I get learning, language or accessibility support?

Contact Catch before paying so we can discuss the course demands and available support. Adjustments must remain consistent with the required training and assessment outcome; support is not an automatic exemption.

What if I cannot complete an assessment activity?

Tell the trainer or contact the team as early as possible. Ask about the applicable support and reassessment arrangements. We cannot promise a pass, a free reassessment or removal of mandatory requirements.

Can someone under 18 enrol?

Age rules differ by course. Confirm eligibility with Catch before booking, including any parent or guardian consent and restrictions that may apply to work after training.

Bookings, payments & certificates

How do I find current course dates and locations?

Use Find dates and book to view live availability, then check the exact venue, date and time before paying. Not every course runs at every Catch location.

What if no suitable class appears?

Contact the team about future dates or a group enquiry. A retained course page is not proof that a public class is currently scheduled, and a preferred date is not confirmed until accepted.

How much does the course cost?

The selected class or bundle in secure booking shows the current price. Check all inclusions and any applicable terms before payment; group pricing is quoted separately.

Can I use Afterpay or an organisation invoice?

Afterpay is available where offered at checkout and subject to provider eligibility and terms. Organisations can discuss invoicing with Catch. Neither option is automatic for every course or booking.

Can an employer or employment provider arrange training?

Yes. Use our organisation and group-training enquiry pathways to discuss participant numbers, courses, timing and billing. Individual learners must still meet the relevant enrolment and assessment requirements.

Can Catch deliver training at our workplace?

Discuss the location, facilities, group size and course requirements first. Suitable onsite delivery, timing and trainer availability must be confirmed before a group booking is agreed.

How do I change or cancel a booking?

Contact Catch with your name, course, booked date and reference. Read the refund and booking conditions before making other plans. A request is not a confirmed change; conditions and fees may apply.

When will I receive my certificate or completion record?

The timing and document depend on the course. Required assessment and enrolment checks must be completed first; regulator-issued cards can have separate processing steps. Confirm timing with Catch if you have an employment deadline.

What if my certificate is missing or has an error?

Contact student support with your name, course, attendance date and booking reference if available. Explain the issue without sending identity documents through a general enquiry; follow the team’s instructions for verification.

Check the official requirements

Role-specific rules and regulator processes can change. Use the official guidance alongside your course information.
