With the Australian freight task on track to triple by 2050, the road transport industry is busier than ever. We need motivated, competent, young people to join the industry, with a satisfying and rewarding career as a transport professional available to the right people.
The Victorian Transport Association’s Driver Delivery program is an intensive eight-day course that trains participants in this highly skilled profession, and then puts them in paid employment with a transport operator. Participants will achieve a solid foundation of driving skills, confidence and the competency of operating heavy vehicles safely.
Specific training is provided in:
• Occupational Health & Safety
• Cabin Drills
• Load Restraint
• Road Craft
• Fatigue Management
• Loading Docks
• Metropolitan Driving
• Rural Driving
• Risk Reduction Techniques
• Vehicle Inspection
• Chain of Responsibility
Driver Delivery is supported by the Victorian Government, with tuition fully subsidised. Upon successful completion, the VTA will facilitate interviews with transport operators to help secure employment.
