Vehicle Loading Crane Ticket
The vehicle loading crane ticket (CV - TLILIC0040) at Shamrock Training is the High Risk Work Licence required to legally operate any vehicle-mounted loading crane with a capacity of 10 metre tonnes or above on an Australian worksite, covering construction, logistics, transport, and delivery operations. The course runs from the Northgate Brisbane training centre near Brisbane Airport, with workers travelling from across Queensland to complete their CV licence.
No prerequisites are required, and you walk away with your CV licence and a same-day Statement of Attainment upon successful completion - the legal authorisation that employers, principal contractors, and site supervisors require before you operate a truck-mounted crane on any Australian worksite. Book your class at Northgate or call to confirm your next available course date.

Who Needs a Vehicle Loading Crane Ticket?
Anyone required to operate a vehicle loading crane with a capacity of 10 metre tonnes or above as part of their work must hold a valid CV High Risk Work Licence (TLILIC0024).
This includes:
Transport and delivery operators using truck-mounted cranes to load and unload cargo on construction sites
Logistics and delivery workers whose vehicles are fitted with vehicle loading cranes
Civil construction workers operating truck-mounted cranes for materials delivery and placement
Anyone directed by their employer to hold a CV HRWL before operating on site
A vehicle loading crane is mounted on a vehicle for the purpose of loading and unloading cargo. Operating one safely requires a solid understanding of safety practices, load dynamics, and crane maintenance. The CV HRWL (TLILIC0024) is the nationally recognised qualification required for cranes with a capacity of 10 metre tonnes or above across the construction, logistics, and transport industries.
Without a valid CV HRWL, you cannot legally operate a vehicle loading crane of this capacity on any Australian worksite.
