Big Thanks to Diggerman and all there trainers, Firstly I was a mechanic for a decade and I hurt my back and am unable to ever do physical labour, The Trainers didn't just pass me it took months of learning and training on the machines, They didn't just say I payed so I passed and because they took there time and taught me all about the civil construction industry now I have the best job ever and I owe it all to Diggerman and their trainers.

I did my forklift licence with Diggerman Training, and would recommend them to anyone wanting tickets or licences in construction or plant operations. The forklift course is delivered over 3 days, and has a good mix of theory vs. practical. All materials provided for theory are easy to understand and well formatted for your success in completion. The instructor (Brad) is friendly, committed to students doing well, has plenty of experience in the industry and delivers the course content with clear and understandable methods.

I spent 18+years in hospitality and wanted a caarer change and decided to get into civil construction. I went to Diggerman to do my traffic control course. With much help and support I got my licence and got a job traffic controlling. While doing my licence, Fingers (my tutor) encouraged me to get my heavy wheels and rollers ticket. I returned a few months later and got my rollers ticket. While doing my Rollers ticket again Fingers and Graham encouraged me to get my Haul truck and front end loader ticket. In Which I did. I also got water cart ticket and more with there encouragement, Plus my level 2 traffic control licence. I am so thankful to Diggerman and all there team for all the help, support and encouragement that they gave me as I am now working on one of the biggest construction sites on the sunshine coast with a great company driving haul trucks, Rollers etc absolutely loving it.

After 20 years in civil & mining DIGGERMAN training is simply the single best training centre I've ever witnessed. If your looking for any machine or safety, emergency response courses classes certificates, etc Dan, Graham & team of professionals will go the extra mile to ensure you succeed in every way possible. They know exactly how to teach train present both theory & practicie so even the learner with zero experience understands questions right through to the machines of your choice or confined spaces, fire suppression & more than I could type in a day. Please do not hesitate to call DIGGERMAN, there's no need to hold back with self doubt or lack of confidence as they're quite aware nobody was born operating machines & others are after a new challenge. They really are the best out there & I thank them for all the support I received to update my skills.
