Our Onsite Training Locations
Which types of machinery are covered in training?
Courses typically include training on rigid haul trucks, articulated dump trucks, hydraulic excavators, and stockpile equipment. Learners are taught how to safely conduct pre-start checks, load and unload materials, and operate machinery in compliance with mine site safety procedures and environmental protocols.
Do mining courses cover real site conditions?
Yes, training often simulates real mine site conditions, including uneven terrain, restricted visibility, and heavy load handling. Courses focus on building your confidence in navigating these environments while following standard safety practices, equipment procedures, and communication protocols used in live mining operations.
What certifications do I receive after the course?
Upon successful completion, you’ll receive a nationally recognised statement of attainment for each unit of competency. These can include units like Site Induction (Standard 11) and Risk Management, which are commonly required on Australian mine sites.
