Advanced Scaffold Training Course

An advanced scaffolding ticket enables a person to erect, alter and dismantle hung and suspended scaffolds.

The course will culminate in an assessment of competency in accordance with the advanced scaffolding national assessment instrument.

As one person cannot safely erect a scaffold, a prerequisite of WorkSafe is that a minimum of 3 students is required for the course to go ahead.

Trainees must be over 18 years of age.

A $200 deposit is payable in advance to confirm your booking, then the balance is payable prior to the first day of the course.  

Your High Risk Work Licence is recognised nationally, we are WorkSafe and Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) compliant and are a Registered Training Office (RTO).

Once the course is completed your Notice of Assessment must be lodged at a Victorian Post Office within 60 days which will cost $64. This Notice of Assessment then forms your interim ticket until your licence arrives in the mail.
