Scraper Ticket Course Outline
We offer two nationally recognised courses to receive a Scraper Ticket.
The nationally accredited Scraper Courses are designed to teach you how to prepare and operate a scraper to meet minimum training and assessment standards when operating a Scraper.
We deliver two courses for the civil construction and mining industries. These courses give learners the skills and knowledge required to operate a scraper to load, transport and discharge material, and to couple and relocate a scraper.
This course applies to those working in site-based roles.

Course Outcome
To complete the Scraper Ticket course, students must successfully complete all assessments which are aligned with the national unit of competency.
Upon successful completion of the course requirements, students will receive a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment (SOA).
Your Statement of Attainment does not have an expiry date, however, most sites will want your SOA dated within a 2 year period so some employers may require you to be VOC’d or refresh your competency to retain your currency.
