Boom-type elevating work platform means a telescoping device, hinged device, or articulated device, or any combination of these, used to support a platform on which personnel, equipment and materials may be elevated.
The course is offered as a combined ASQA and WorkSafe Victoria unit package. ACE Training will deliver the training through classroom instruction and realistic learning environments. ACE Training’s qualified assessors will assess the participants’ competence through a series of verbal and written questions and practical demonstrations. A course overview will be provided upon completion of the enrolment process.
Successful students who pass the assessment by our qualified assessor will be awarded a Statement of Attainment for TLILIC0005 Licence to Operate a Boom-Type Elevating Work Platform 11 Metres or More. Students will also need to apply to WorkSafe Victoria via the myWorkSafe portal to obtain your Boom Lift Licence. You have 60 days after completing this course to submit your application and additional fees apply.
Please note that this unit in itself does not result in a High-Risk Work Licence (HRWL) to operate this equipment.
ACE Training has reviewed the structure and delivery of this unit and determined that Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is not offered for this course.
Due to the short duration of the program, the time and effort required for a student to gather sufficient evidence and complete a formal RPL application is likely to exceed the time it would take to complete the training and assessment. In addition, the RTO resources required to assess and validate RPL applications for this course make the process not viable or efficient in this context.
This decision aligns with the guidance outlined in the Outcome Standards Policy Guidance (Standards for RTOs 2025), which recognises that RPL may not be appropriate or practical in all circumstances.
ACE Training is committed to transparency and fairness. Information regarding RPL is also available in our Credit Transfer and Recognition of Prior Learning Policy, which is available on our resources page. In addition, our administrative team is available to discuss this with students upon request.
