Licence to operate a forklift truck

The 2-Day training course that we offer at ATEC involves a 3-stage learning process, as follows:

Stage 1

Stage 1 involves an online assessment consisting of our learner resource and an 84-question assessment involving true/false & multiple-choice questions, this will need to be completed to attend stage 2 of training.

Stage 2

Stage 2 requires participants to attend the 1st-day of the face-to-face theory & practical block at either our Lonsdale or Ottoway site.

This will involve the:

• Calculation Assessment
• Forklift Checks/Maintenance; and
• Practical forklift skills training

If all aspects of Stage 1 & 2 are met and passed successfully, you will be issued with the TLILIC0003 unit of competency allowing you to move onto stage 3, the final stage of assessment.

IF stage 1 & 2 are not met the full course will need to be re-booked and the full fee of training will require payment again.

Stage 3

Stage 3/Day 2 is controlled by Safe Work SA entirely, as this is the High-Risk Licence component of training it is far more stringent on the assessment and resulting process. The SafeWork SA day involves the:

• Theory & Calculation Assessment – Closed book
• Practical Assessment - Practical Assessment – Can only be attempted after successfully passing the theory & calculations

ATEC follows all guidelines set out by SafeWork SA and ask all participants to do the same by listening and following instructions laid out by your trainer and absolutely suggest paying attention and taking notes throughout the course. This will considerably increase your chances in passing the SafeWork SA assessment. If this is not done, will lead to a ‘ Not Yet Competent (NYC) result.

Those who receive a NYC will have to reschedule for the SafeWork SA component only at a cost of $280. Those who do not pass the SafeWork SA theory are unable to move onto the final stage of assessment, the Practical.

• Be at least 18 years of age

• Be an Australian/New Zealand Citizen or hold an eligible VISA.

• Have the ability to read, write and understand basic English and carry out basic mathematical calculations independently.
