The elevated work platform (EWP) course provides you with the skills and expertise necessary to safely operate a boom-type elevating work platform where the boom is 11 metres or more in length. It can be a telescopic, hinged, or articulated device used to support a platform where workers, materials and equipment may be raised. The training in its current form meets the standards specified in the state and territory licencing and unit of competency requirements.
Participants will learn the fundamental principles of EWP operation, including but not limited to, WHS Legislation, safety procedures, hazard identification, operating techniques, load estimation, communication skills, emergency procedures, maintenance and inspection, and regulatory compliance.
Delivery of this course is completed face-to face with a mix of classroom-based theory training and hands on practical training.
To be eligible for this course, participants must be 18 years of age or older and have basic English literacy (reading and writing). Three forms of eligible ID are required at enrolment, on the first day of your course, and on the day of assessment. Acceptable forms of ID are outlined here.

This includes telescoping, hinged, articulated or combination boom-type EWPs – commonly known as boom lifts or knuckle booms. It is a nationally recognised High Risk Work Licence class WP, mandatory for operating these machines in Australia.
The TLILIC0005 is a High-Risk Work Licence required by law for boom-type EWPs 11 metres or more, while the RIIHAN301E unit is a nationally recognised unit for scissor lifts and smaller boom lifts under 11m. It is important to note that a High-Risk Work Licence (TLILIC0005) does not permit you to operate equipment under 11m; you must hold the specific RII unit for those machines.
