Shamrock Training in Northgate Brisbane runs the full dogging and rigging progression, from the entry-level dogman ticket right through to advanced rigging.
Get the high-risk work licences needed to sling loads, direct cranes and carry out basic through advanced rigging work.
Shamrock Training in Northgate Brisbane delivers dogging and rigging training for workers who need practical, nationally recognised tickets for construction, civil, mining and industrial worksites.
Start with a Dogman Licence to learn load slinging and crane direction, then progress through Basic, Intermediate and Advanced Rigging as your work becomes more complex.
Do I need a dogman ticket before I can do a rigging course?
It depends on your experience and the specific rigging course. Contact us with your background and we'll confirm the right entry point for you.
How long does a dogman ticket course take?
The dogman course typically runs one to two days covering both theory and practical assessment. Contact us for current scheduling.
Are dogging and rigging licences recognised nationally?
Yes. All dogging and rigging high risk work licences are nationally recognised and valid across every state and territory in Australia.
Can I do my dogman ticket and basic rigging course together?
Depending on scheduling, some courses can be run back to back. Talk to us about your goals and we'll put together the most efficient training plan.
What is the difference between a dogman and a rigger?
A dogman directs crane operations and attaches loads. A rigger has a broader scope including rigging of plant, structural steel, and more complex configurations. Many workers hold both. The progression goes dogman → basic rigging → intermediate → advanced.
