There are no perquisites for these courses.

We run 3 pathways/courses for earthmoving units:

Students with Minimal or No Experienced (Beginner): We require students to hold a construction induction card or equivalent.

Students with Relevant Industry Experience (Experienced): We require students to hold a construction induction card  and candidates must have a minimum of 3 months industry experience in general construction, road construction or earthmoving.

Assessment only: For any students wanting up upgrade their current competencies to national coded earthmoving tickets, we require the either:

• A state/NOHSC operator ticket
• A letter from an employer (on a company letter head) verifying that the operator has at least 12 months of prior experience.

Once this is obtained students are then able to complete assessments only.

Participants must be able to converse and comprehend basic English. Participants will complete language, numeracy and literacy assessment on course commencement to assess their capacity to meet language requirements. Participants will also need to have the physical capacity to undertake the practical components of the earthmoving courses.
