Truck Mounted Boom

Truck Mounted Booms are a great way of reaching up to height whilst having the flexibility to drive yourself wherever the job required. Very few jobs are as satisfying as driving up to where you need to be, parking and levelling the machine and completing your task in good time!

Our assessors pass on their EWP experience and knowledge of the machines with the aim to give you confidence and practical, real world, expertise allowing you or your staff to complete their job safely.

23966 – Describe types of EWP, and legislative requirements for their use (Theory) - This must be completed for all new card holders

23961 - Assess the worksite, prepare and operate a self-propelled boom lift EWP (Practical)

The one-day course is designed to deliver essential safety and compliance information. Attendees will gain theoretical knowledge and practical skills in:

• Health and Safety Legislative Requirements
• Types of Elevated Work Platforms (EWP’s)
• EWP Compliance Requirements
• Hazard identification, risk assessment and controls
• Fall arrest harness inspection, fitting and use
• Conduct pre and post operational checks
• Safe Operation of EWP

• Theory & Practical assessments, observation and demonstration.

Upon successful completion of the course, we take care of the rest! Your Unit Standards will be sent to The Skills Organisation who will place these on your NZQA Record of Achievement. You will then receive a Silvercard EWP Operator ID License as proof of training and competency. 

In a hurry to get proof of competency? Not a problem, we can email you a “temporary” Silvercard License which can be used when operating machinery until you receive the official photo ID license.
