FX Australia Professional Courses
The FX Australia Courses are run on a demand basis. The classes are generally small to cater to individual needs.

The Master Painters Association of NSW endorses FX Australia Courses.

Participants may choose to complete one, two or all three 1 - day courses.

Each course is broken down to cover 2-3 categories of application techniques and style of finishes.

Costing and preparation work is discussed extensively during each course.

All materials and tools are supplied. Each participant is provided with large 600mmx600mm boards to complete their work on and to take home as a reference.

Each course participant is provided with refreshments and food throughout the day. FX Australia caps and sample pots are also supplied at the end of each course.

Points System
Each professional trade's person will be required to gain 100 points over a three year period to retain their licence.

The points are achieved through professional reading, demonstrations and courses.

Each hour spent on an FX Australia Course is equal to 2 points. This equates to approximately 12 points per day or 36 points for all three days.

At times the course runs over the scheduled finishing times.
