This unit specifies the skills and knowledge required to safely operate a boom-type Elevating Work Platform (EWP) where the length of the boom is 11 metres or more in accordance with all relevant legislative requirements. Competence in this unit does not in itself result in a Risk Work Licence (HRWL) to operate this plant.

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be eligible to be assessed for a National High Risk Licence.

A boom lift licence is important in Australia because it allows people to operate a boom lift safely. A boom lift is a type of aerial platform that can be used to reach high places, and without a licence, people may not be able to operate it safely.

There are different types of boom lifts, and each type has its own set of safety regulations. To ensure that you are operating a boom lift safely, you need to have a licence specific to the type of lift you are using.

At DLI Training, we offer expert EWP training over 11m, ensuring that all students are able to safely and reliably operate the necessary equipment and machinery to be an asset to the workplace. By undertaking boom lift over 11m training, you’re prioritising safety and ultimately streamlining your future projects through conscious learning and responsibility.
