COURSE DETAILS
Shamrock Training offers Forklift Licence training in Brisbane for students who want to operate forklifts safely and confidently. The course covers the nationally recognised unit TLILIC0003 and includes both theory and practical training.
No prior forklift experience is required. Students must be 18 years or older, have basic English literacy skills, and provide the required evidence of identity before assessment.
The Forklift Licence covers powered industrial trucks with a mast and elevating load carriage, including common sit-down, stand-up and reach forklifts. It does not cover telehandlers, which require separate training and assessment.
Funding availability may vary depending on current course eligibility and student circumstances. Contact Shamrock Training before enrolling to confirm whether any funding options or payment arrangements are available.
Yes. After successfully completing your assessment, you will need to apply directly to Workplace Health and Safety Queensland for your licence. A separate government application fee applies, and your application must be submitted within the required timeframe after assessment.
