An asset to industry

Its Registered Training Organisation, Asset Training, is dedicated to providing specific training in wastewater management and industrial maintenance services.

Asset Training is fully equipped to deliver its training courses Australia-wide.

All trainers are experienced with VET accreditation and a passion for providing exceptional and comprehensive training with hopes of improving the wastewater management and industrial maintenance services on offer throughout Australia. 

Courses on offer cover a wide range of skill and experience levels, and all include both theoretical and practical delivery and assessments.

Asset Training is committed to constantly developing new industry-specific training, and its dedication to quality has not gone unnoticed, with its new Online High Pressure Water Jetting (HPWJ) Course nominated for the 2020 Hunter Safety Award for Best WHS Training Course, while one of its trainers, Holly Tonner, was nominated for Young WHS Leader of the Year. 

The HPWJ Course has form in this area, having taken out the award in 2019.

Holly Tonner was nominated for the 2020 Hunter Safety Awards Young WHS Leader of the Year.

New additions and key courses

Asset Training is now offering a new Online HPWJ Refresher Course, which is the first of its kind in Australia.

The course uses the MSMWJ301 ‘Operate a high-pressure water jetting system’ to assess the competency knowledge of the HPWJ operator.

The operator is then practically assessed through document and video submissions and if successful is re-certified as competent to their operator status.

Asset Training is also offering its Confined Space courses at its new Confined Space training facility.

The Confined Space Entry course is designed to provide the participants with the competencies required to remove or minimise risks in the workplace associated with confined space person entry.

Asset Training’s CCTV Conduit Inspector training has quickly become a necessity and utility prerequisite, as it provides students with the knowledge and skills expected of a qualified CCTV operator or supervisor undertaking conduit inspections and reporting on the condition of conduits in Australia.

A student will be given an introduction to conduit inspection software, shown how to perform a thorough CCTV conduit inspection survey and prepare associated conduit condition reports.

This course can be attended by CCTV field managers and operators who require the highest understanding of the sewer and stormwater conduit inspection evaluation process, or any person who is responsible for evaluating, inspecting, reporting, or is associated with conduit/asset management, inspection or construction. 

Asset Training has the latest equipment and software available for delivery of this training, ensuring all students are up to date with the latest industry knowledge, methods and technology.
