Attend a Blue Card Services event

Blue Card Services engages with stakeholders throughout Queensland to help them understand how the blue card system works. Our aim is to educate and help community members and organisations meet their obligations under the blue card system.

Blue Card Services event types

Community visits

We visit Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to provide information to  organisations and individuals about the blue card system, including:

• who needs a blue card and who doesn’t
• how to apply for a blue card
• getting support with the blue card application and submission process
• understanding more about obligations under the blue card system.

Learn more about what we do to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

We also visit regional, rural and remote communities across Queensland. We attend events, run workshops and meet with a wide range of businesses and organisations regulated by the blue card system. If you would like us to attend an event or deliver a workshop in your community please contact us.

Presentations

We deliver presentations in person and online for various stakeholder groups who want to learn about the blue card system. These sessions are an opportunity to meet our team and ask questions.

Who needs a blue card

This session is tailored to different stakeholders regulated by the blue card system.

It includes practical examples of when a person does and doesn’t need a blue or exemption card and when they may not be eligible to hold one.

The blue card check

This session is for organisations and individuals and explains blue card eligibility and assessment requirements.

It explores why linking applicants and card holders is important and why organisations should not make everyone get a blue card.

Child and youth risk management strategies

Keeping children safe is a shared responsibility—all organisations and businesses providing services to children play a crucial role in providing safe service environments.

This session provides information about how to develop effective child and youth risk management strategies to better protect children and young people.

Organisation Portal

This session is targeted at organisations who want to learn about the benefits and functionality of the Organisation Portal.

This session will assist organisations to effectively use the portal to meet their blue card obligations.

Overview of the blue card system

This session touches on all components of the blue card system including:

• who needs a blue card
• the blue card check
• ongoing daily monitoring of all blue card holders and applicants
• obligations of organisations and child and youth risk management strategies.

We can tailor this presentation to include practical examples for different industries. Please contact us if you would like this presentation tailored to your organisation.
