Purpose

The aim of this course is to produce an operator that can demonstrate the knowledge, skills and attributes for 4WD driving in an off road environment in the workplace.

 

This course enables the individual to drive a 4WD effectively and safely over varied terrain as would be required in most off road workplaces.

 

The trainee will also be able to demonstrate the appropriate responsibilities of a driver of a 4WD with emphasis on accident prevention.

 

A full class one licence is required to participate on this course.

Note: You will need to supply your own 4WD for the training

 

Duration:

The one day course option is for refresher training, or for those who can provide documented proof of some form of prior off road driving experience or training, and who require the off road elements of driver training only. To book on the one day course you are required to have experience and skills on the outcomes listed in line with the NZQA unit standards. 

Trainees that book on the one day course will be required to provide evidence of experience in the form of logbooks, manager’s attestations and/or other verification. This evidence must be presented prior to the course or on the first day of the course.

The two day off road only course option is for those with no prior off road driving experience. The extra day allows a wider spread of off road situations to be covered including some basic vehicle recovery tuition. This course optimises the off road driving experience phase. 

The two day course option with on road element: This course covers all the off road content but with the addition of an on-road element covering 4wd specific driving thought processes, legal requirements and road code revision, loading considerations and a practical driving element  specific to driving a light 4wd vehicle in the workplace.
