Gain the qualification needed to handle basic rigging tasks safely and legally across Victoria. Our CPCCLRG3001 training is a five‑day, face‑to‑face program at our Riddells Creek campus that prepares you for a High‑Risk Work Licence (Class RB). Designed for dogmen and construction workers, it blends classroom theory with practical rigging experience in line with Australian regulations.
This five‑day CPCCLRG3001 course teaches you to plan and execute basic rigging tasks, from erecting steel and precast panels to installing hoists and safety nets. To enrol you must hold a dogging licence and either an EWP or scissor‑lift competency, be at least 18 and pass an LLN test. Graduates receive a Statement of Attainment and are eligible to apply for a High‑Risk Work Licence. Skills First funding may reduce fees for eligible Victorians.
