Traffic Control / Management (TC1 & TMI1) Combined Course

This course is delivered via a structured combination of face-to-face training, assessment, workplace experience, and final practical evaluation.

The delivery includes:

• In-class / face-to-face theory delivery
• Theory-based assessment
• Simulated practical activities
• On-site practical work experience
• Final face-to-face practical assessment

Following the successful completion of the theoretical (face-to-face) training and associated assessments, learners are required to obtain practical workplace experience and successfully complete a final practical assessment before a Statement of Attainment can be issued.

This approach ensures learners have the opportunity to gain sufficient hands-on experience prior to working independently in traffic control and traffic management roles.

Practical experience requirements must be completed on declared Temporary Traffic Management (TTM) Category roads and must be finalised within six (6) months of successfully completing the theoretical component.

Link Resources has partnered with a number of Traffic Management Companies across Melbourne, Adelaide, and Launceston and can assist learners in arranging suitable practical work placement opportunities. Learners may also organise their own workplace to complete the required practical experience, subject to approval.

Learners are required to supply their own Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for practical work placement. PPE requirements may vary by site but will typically include:

• High-visibility vest, shirt, or jacket
• High-visibility pants
• Safety boots
• Hard hat
• Safety glasses
• Gloves
• Two-way radio

Participants should confirm mandatory PPE requirements directly with their Traffic Management Company prior to attending site to ensure compliance.

The requirements for completing the practical component vary depending on the Temporary Traffic Management National Training Program undertaken.

The Traffic Controller (TC1) and Traffic Management Implementer (TMI1) practical components must be completed under direct supervision on a declared TTM Category 1 road.

This includes publicly accessible and operational roads that reflect real-world traffic control conditions. All site-specific, statutory, and safety requirements must be strictly observed at all times during practical training and assessment.
