Frequently Asked Questions
Do you still offer a 1 day training and assessment course?
For most people, we can only offer a 2 day training course. This is due to SafeWork SA Regulations that do not allow Accredited Assessors to complete the High Risk Work Licence (HRWL) assessment on the same day as the assessment for the Unit of Competency.
If you already hold the current Unit of Competency (TLILIC0003 – Licence to Operate a Forklift Truck), we can do the 1 day HRWL Assessment only.
Contact ACMT office to discuss.
What happens if I do not get to the Post Office or Services SA in time to pay my HRWL invoice?
You will have to re-sit the HRWL assessment again. SafeWork SA are very strict on the due date of your invoice. Only in very exceptional circumstances will they give an extension (work and regional work is not one of them).
