Heavy Vehicle Licensing

The second day of the Certified Pilot Vehicle Driver course covers the traffic control component which is the Refresher that is required to be done every three years to maintain your Pilot licence.

Have you ever seen vehicles at the front and back of a truck that’s carrying a massive load? Those vehicles are ‘pilot vehicles’ and this is the course to be able to do it! This pilot vehicle operator course is a requirement for those who wish to apply for a pilot escort licence through VicRoads. You will develop the skills and knowledge required by pilot vehicle operators to control traffic in the vicinity of an oversized vehicle.

We offer this course to coach drivers who are required to drive in declared hazardous areas as part of the job. Delivered during winter months, this course equips drivers with the skills necessary to safely drive coaches along alpine roads.

The Superior Heavy Vehicle Licensing program is offered by Wodonga TAFE's Transport & Logistics Department. This program is the transport industry’s answer to encouraging new drivers into the industry and providing them with the industry-standard skills and know-how. During this 7 week program, you will have an opportunity to gain a licence to operate a forklift, and either a licence to drive a Heavy Rigid or Heavy Combination Vehicle depending on your current licence and VicRoads' eligibility. If you already hold a forklift licence, you will be put through a forklift refresher program.
