The EWP training course is designed for those who need to operate Boom Lift with a boom length of 11 metres or more. To operate this equipment you are required to hold a nationally recognised WorkSafe Licence to Perform High Risk Work WP class (commonly known as an EWP ticket or Boom Lift ticket). On successful completion of this course you will receive a Statement of Attainment; TLILIC0005 Licence to operate a boom type elevating work platform (boom length 11m or more) issued by Start Training, and a temporary WorkSafe Licence; Licence to Perform High Risk Work – WP. You then need to take this to Australia Post and pay a licence fee of $60 to WorkSafe Victoria to receive you five year WP Licence.
If you need to operate other type of EWP equipment including scissor lift, vertical lift, or a Boom Lift with a length of less than 11 metres, see our Yellow Card course. On successful completion of this course you will receive an EWPA issued Yellow Card and a Statement of Attainment RIIHAN301 Operate elevating work platform. If you enrol in a two day EWP course, you are able to complete a Yellow Card at the same time, resulting in considerable savings.
