Geology and drilling crews engaged in exploration tasks proving up resource reserves are the audience for this two-day duration program, where remote locations and travel over difficult terrain are the norm. The course teaches a lot of self-reliance in the field where help could be a long time coming.

As you’ll be driving along formed roads and rough bush tracks, or even creating your own trails to access sites of interest, the challenges will be many and varied. Elements of our Defensive course can be incorporated into the first day of this program, whilst the second day is usually reserved for the off-road component. We can skill the attendees in dealing with gradients, sand, mud and anything else in between as well as the safest methods in vehicle retrieval. Making sure the vehicle is fit for travel is a key area of attention, with time set aside for safe wheel changing and under bonnet inspection.

The whole focus of the course is on risk avoidance and incident prevention. With a combination of a theory session using Power Point and a practical in the field at our training ground, drivers will benefit immensely from this program. Operators will be provided with skills that are designed to increase their productivity and enhance their safety, the course again is transportable and can be relocated to any site in Australia and elsewhere.
