Refresher training involves attending only theory session of our 2 day traffic course. Prior to starting the course, you will need to supply your current traffic control card to our head office, so we can confirm refresher training is the most appropriate option for you.

Those participating in refresher training must still complete the practical assessment, however this can be completing in your own workplace. Your employer and supervisor must sign off on 3 traffic management plans you have implemented at your workplace. MCFE will then contact your employer to verify details.

Once you have enrolled in the course, the practical assessment will be emailed to you so you can complete it prior to attending the theory session.

Where are classes held?

Our main training is held at 9 Tuscan Court, Thomastown, but we also consider where majority of the students have to travel from. We try to group people from the same location together and hire out venues that are closer to home making it easier for you to travel to. The exact location of the classes will be confirmed once you talk to a representative of Melbourne College of Further Education (MCFE).

What are the practical requirements?

To complete these units you are required to participate in three (3) live traffic projects, one involving construction vehicles. Our course includes a practical training workshop, giving you ‘On Road’ experience increasing your employment opportunities.
