The EWPA Yellow Card, issued by the Elevating Work Platform Association of Australia, is a nationally recognised certification that verifies your ability to operate Elevated Work Platforms (EWPs) safely and competently. Specifically, it qualifies you to operate boom lifts up to 11 metres (self-propelled or trailer-mounted), scissor lifts (all heights), and vertical lifts (all heights).
Our training adheres to AS 2550.10 standards, covering pre-operational checks, hazard identification, safe manoeuvring, and emergency procedures. This certification is essential for workers in construction, warehousing, and maintenance, ensuring compliance with Safe Work Australia regulations and enhancing workplace safety.
Our EWP training is open to individuals aged 16 or older with basic English proficiency for understanding safety instructions and assessments. No prior EWP experience is required, making it accessible to beginners, while experienced operators can formalise their skills with certification.
The course includes practical exercises and written assessments, with trainers offering support to ensure all participants, including those in construction and industrial sectors, achieve competency in operating boom lifts, scissor lifts, and vertical lifts safely.
The EWPA Yellow Card, earned through our training, authorises you to operate boom lifts up to 11 metres (including self-propelled and trailer-mounted models), scissor lifts of any height, and vertical lifts of any height.
