Our comprehensive telehandler course provides the practical skills and in-depth knowledge you need to operate a non-slewing telehandler with confidence. Under the guidance of our experienced instructors, you will learn the fundamentals of telehandler operations from the ground up.

The course places strong emphasis on job planning and preparation, including safe operation in different environments, selecting and fitting attachments, reading and applying telehandler load charts, as well as working with relevant documentation, policies, and procedures. Understanding and controlling hazards, along with regular pre-start safety checks, are core components throughout your training.

In Victoria Australia, a WorkSafe High Risk Licence is required to operate a non-slewing Telehandler over 3 tonnes in weight.

Employers are responsible for providing adequate training to their employees.

The cost of Telehandler Licence training in Australia can vary depending on the provider and the length of the course. On average, prices range from AUD $1,700 to AUD $2,500 per person.

The duration of telehandler licence training can vary depending on the provider and the course format. Typically, courses range from 2 to 3 days. Some providers may offer more extensive training programmes that span multiple days, depending on the level of depth and hands-on experience required.

Completing telehandler licence training offers several benefits, including improved safety in the workplace, increased efficiency and productivity, reduced risk of accidents and damage to equipment, and compliance with workplace health and safety regulations. Trained operators are better equipped to handle the equipment and can contribute to a more efficient and safe work environment.

While some providers may offer online components or theory-based lessons, telehandler training requires hands-on experience with the equipment. Most training courses include a combination of classroom-based instruction and practical, on-site training to ensure operators gain the necessary skills and knowledge to safely operate a telehandler.

The frequency of telehandler licence training renewal may vary depending on the employer’s policies and the specific industry requirements.
