Want to break into the mining industry and actually stand out? All prospective mining workers will have a Standard 11, but pairing it with two machinery tickets? That’s the ultimate upgrade to make you a top pick.
We answer some FAQs about our standard 11 mining induction package below.
What Is the Standard 11 + machinery package?
The Standard 11 is the must-have qualification for anyone heading into the mines. It’s a comprehensive safety training course covering everything you need to know to work safely, handle emergencies, and communicate effectively on a mining site. At Ascent, we’ve upped the ante by bundling this essential training with two popular and highly sought-after machine tickets:
- Rigid Haul truck; and
- Articulated Haul Truck
This combo package makes you stand out as someone who can hit the ground running, operate critical equipment, and add value from day one.
AND for $350 each you can add any other additional machine ticket to your course package, and complete them outside the 5-day S11 Course.
How much does the package cost?
We offer the Standard course and two machinery tickets worth $2200 for the price of $1499. That’s $700 cash savings, not to mention the extra costs involved with taking time off work or travel logistics.
Does everyone going into the mines need a Standard 11?
Yes. The Standard 11 is a non-negotiable requirement for working in Queensland’s mining industry. It’s the baseline qualification that proves you understand safety, communication, and emergency protocols. Whether you’re new to the industry, moving roles, or looking to upgrade your skills, this is the certification that opens doors.
And when you add a machinery ticket, you’re positioning yourself as a valuable asset to any team, ready to step up and operate the equipment that keeps the industry moving.
How long does the Standard 11 mining induction and machinery ticket take?
Standard 11 mining induction alone takes: 2 days
Standard 11 + machinery ticket: 5 days
That’s less than a week to gain the qualifications you need to step into the mining industry with confidence.
How often do you have to do a Standard 11?
Every mine worker must refresh their Standard 11 skillset every five years, but requirements can vary between worksites.
