Duration explained:
Given that the training for a piece of earthmoving equipment is competency based, some participants may achieve competency earlier than others and be ready for assessment prior to the end of the course.
If you have prior experience with the machines, or have hours recorded in a logbook under old system but where your logbook is no longer legally recognised, it may also lead to a possible early assessment.
