All participants must meet the following requirements in order to be eligible for a Traffic Controller Licence therefore we require the same standards prior to enrolment into this course:
- Must be at least 18 years of age
- Must have held an open or provisional drivers licence (Australian or Foreign) continuously for at least 12 months in the past 5 years
- Must not have any criminal convictions in the past 5 years that constitute a disqualifying offence. Contact us for more info if you are unsure.
Licensing
Licences are processed by Queensland Transport following completion of the course. As at 1 July 2008, the Licence Application Fee including the Criminal History Check Fee is $114.30 for a three year licence. Licence fees are subject to change without notice however they are normally increased on 1 July annually.
Licence Applications are lodged at most Queensland Transport Customer Service Centres. The approximate processing time for licence applications is 3 - 4 weeks due to the time required for criminal history checks although this time may vary in some cases.
If a renewal application is lodged prior to the expiry date, the Traffic Controller may continue working although if the licence has expired prior to the renewal application being lodged, the Traffic Controller must cease work until the new licence has been approved.
Traffic Controllers are required to undertake a refresher course every three years in order to maintain their accreditation. See our Traffic Controller Refresher Course for this information.
