Where can I get my Dogman Ticket in Brisbane?
Ascent Training Solutions delivers the Dogman (DG) Ticket at our purpose-built training facility in Richlands, Brisbane. Our CPCCLDG3001 course is a nationally recognized unit. You can view the full curriculum and assessment requirements on Training.gov.au here .
What are the course requirements and how long does it take?
The dogging course runs for 5 days, combining classroom-based theory with hands-on practical training. You need to be 18 years or older, have basic English literacy, and bring three forms of eligible evidence of identity (EOI). Day 5 is your High Risk Work Licence (HRWL) assessment.
What is the difference between Dogging and Rigging?
A Dogman selects and inspects lifting gear, directs crane operators and applies slinging techniques when the load is out of the operator’s sight. A Rigger can do all of that plus install structural steel, safety nets, perimeter screens and hoists. In Queensland you must hold your Dogging licence before progressing to Rigging Basic (CPCCLRG3001) .
Is there a fee to apply for my High Risk Work Licence after the course?

There is an additional government fee payable to WHSQ for the licence application. You must apply within 60 days of completing your assessment with Ascent Training Solutions.
