In 2011, Shirley gained her Fire Safety Adviser qualification and later completed a course in Property Risk and Compliance Management with the National Safety Council of Australia. This course focussed directly on risk management for Bodies Corporate and facilities managed complexes, giving her a good working knowledge of Body Corporate requirements. She currently holds a Trade Contractor licence in Emergency Procedures with the Queensland Building and Construction Commission and is fully licensed to conduct fire safety inspections and associated services for Bodies Corporate.
