In Australia you need a high risk work licence (class WP) to operate a boom-type elevating work platform with a boom of 11 metres or more. TLILIC0005 is the training and assessment for that licence. You'll learn to plan the job, do pre-start checks, set up, operate the boom safely and shut it down. After passing, you apply to SafeWork NSW for your licence.
