I read the linked documents but could not find a reference to how a
pilot qualifies for the low level enforsement. Does it require
specific training, or is it sufficient to have been doing it for years
without mishap.

http://www.gfa.org.au/Docs/ops/opregs.pdf links to the right have the info.

Specific training or demonstration would qualify as long as the instructor
was certified to do it.
