Standard 11 Generic Induction Course

Great staff here. They are very friendly helpful and experienced. Great facilities and equipment. I have just completed my vehicle loading crane and dog man courses.
My tutors Robbie (vehicle loading crane) and Mark and Gerry (Dogman) were awesome they made the whole experience worthwhile. Their skills knowledge and industry experience made the learning interesting and achievable. Big thanks to those guys.

The onsite accommodation is also good comfortable and great value for money. I highly recommend Ascent training and would happily study here again.

fantastic place with a great atmosphere, excellent trainers, and outstanding facilities. Highly recommend to anyone looking to step up their training.

Trainers here are amazing, made everything theory and practical so simple.
Offering great facilities and on-site equipment. Will definitely be back for other courses.

Would recommend ascent for all training purposes staff are great and helpful I even witnessed a fella named Kevin giving a pep talk to a student who was struggling the best words I have heard in a long time don’t give up on urself

5 star
Practical sessions were very informative and in class trainer was very helpful. Will definitely be back

Theodore Calabrese is a great teacher and really knows his stuff. And a big thank you to Kevin for running the show in the background and sorting out anything I required when onsite, especially after another company in the area pulled out last minute. Ascent Training truly stepped up when I needed it. These are the guys you want to be training with. If I could, I’d give them 6 stars that’s exactly what they deserve! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Very good place to learn, my trainer and assessor Theo was very knowledgeable and able to explain things in a practical way the whole class could understand, the owner Kevin is great as well and guided me with what courses were fit for my career path.
The cranes and equipment are new and the facility’s are well maintained.
Thank you ascent! 10/10!

Great place to do all high risk work tickets. Kevin and all the lads provide all the training you need to give you the best chance of passing!

Recently done my dogmans ticket here & would recommend to everyone I know wanting to book a course
Amazing team, Great teachers & all round great experience wish them all the best & a special thanks to Theo Calabrese was my assessor & teacher best teacher helps out any way he can & makes the experience a lot less daunting if you ever need to ask a question he’s the man,
Thanks Ascent Training Solutions.

I had the privilege to sit my dogman ticket at Ascent training. Was under the tutelage of Theo and Irish Mark for theory and practical. At first glance the theory assessment was daunting and intimidating but with Theo’s tutoring and knowledge also mixed with his awesome people skills and being able to relate the questions to scenarios or situations that were easier to understand and answer made the theory side of the course a lot easier than expected. Theo also took time during classes to help guide the students who weren’t ‘book’ learners. Theo doing that made the students who struggled understand easier and were able to grasp a hold of the course.

Irish Mark was awesome his enthusiasm when out on the floor was great but also his ability to teach the class in a calmer way that we understood easier. If any of us were struggling in each way Mark was able to give us little ‘tips and tricks’ that we could try and made it easier to understand in our own way. I also came across Jerry who was helping instruct with our practical dogman course. Jerry was also awesome and was able to also give tips and tricks that made it easier to grasp the concepts of what we were struggling with at the time.

Theo, Irish Mark and Jerry. Absolutely appreciate and am really grateful to have crossed paths and been under your guys wings the last week.

Kevin, top facilities and awesome compound. Highly recommended.

Big thanks to Robbie, Theo, Mark, Jerry, and Kevin. Great training environment and very supportive team. I’d highly recommend Ascent Training to anyone looking to progress further in their career 🇨🇰🤙🏾

Great training facility,this training organisation is top class,the trainers 10/10,Theo Calabrese is a awesome teacher and made the class room a pleasure to be in,thank you for your guys time.

Great training centre with excellent facilities. I’ve completed a few courses here and just finished the Basic Rigging course with John.

John was a great instructor – very knowledgeable and able to explain everything in a practical way that makes it easy to understand. No matter what question was asked, he always had a clear explanation.

Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to complete their high-risk training. I’ll definitely be back for future courses.

In recent months l have completed 5 tickets three of them being high risk. The trainers l had, being Theo, Mark and Gavin are very good at their craft and very passionate about what they do and how they go about engaging the students and proudly representing Ascent Training Solutions.
I commend them and also to the head office administration and management staff. Sueanne handled predominantly all my processes and provided wonderful guidance and prompt and clear communication. Her bedside manner was tremendous.
Congratulations to you all and l certainly will recommend your services to anyone that is intending to complete their tickets.
Kind Regards
Brett McCouat

Completed two Hrwl's here and found the trainers to be good people with plenty of wisdom. Highly recommend.

Just completed my c6 course and couldn’t have asked for a better RTO. The learning was made easy and very comfortable with the prac side of things. I am going to recommend this RTO to everyone I know looking to upskill.

Absolutely top notch training and support offered, Kevin and the rest of team are brilliant

Training was fun. All study materials were provided to prepare for the test and the trainer was there to assist with clarifying some of the terms. Practicals lifting equipment were also there with no issues

Took part in the Dogman course and successfully completed it. The team was fantastic, great communication about the skills needed in the industry. Signing up was easy and stressless. Cheers to Mark, for the clear and direct teaching to understand the needs of the role. Thank you

Mark Lynch was my trainer for the dogman course and he really helped me and the whole class. I went into my theory test very confident because the lessons were full of information. In the practical lessons Mark really helped me understand dogging and how to sling loads up safely.

Did my training for dogman course with mark - he’s very knowledgeable and good at explaining things.

Just completed Dogman training with Mark from accent. Great trainer, very informative. Took the time to make sure we understood everything.

Ascent training is an outstanding facility that helped me gain my Dogmaanss ticket

Ascent Training is a well oiled machine run by a team of experienced professionals who really know their stuff. Here’s the thing though, what makes Ascent Training unique is the people who pass on their skill's, knowledge and experience the same way a benevolent family member would. They want us to succeed. I was encouraged to dig deep at times and even experienced some tough love when I repeated a mistake with the whistle. Anyway, after 7 full days and 5 nights, I passed my assessments in Dogman, C6 crane and Forklift. Thank you Kevin and team!

John Q and Theo Calabrese bloody awesome trainers guys. A lot of info to digest but these guys have the industry knowledge to set you up for success! Cheers guys

Thanks to Theo, john K, John Q and Kevin for the accurate descriptions of the courses at hand. Great place and id recommend to use ascent training for anyone willing to progress further in their career

Ascent Training sets the bar high. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely invested in your progress — they take the time to teach proper technique, tailor sessions to your goals, and push you to perform at your best. The facility is clean, well-equipped, and has an awesome community vibe that makes every session enjoyable. The programming is challenging yet achievable, and the atmosphere is always supportive and motivating. Been here for a few tickets now and have received the same excellent level of training each time

Theo was a legend very verbal and straight forward answers when it came to teaching or answering something I had trouble with or couldn’t understand I highly recommend Ascent training if your looking to book for a forklift ticket. Thanks Ascent

Very professional and thorough training, Theo took the time to explain and demonstrate all necessary training.

Great facilities and awesome trainers.
Theo was great helped me understand my course very easily. Made gaining more skill smooth and straight forward.
Cheers.

Hands down, the BEST training experience I’ve ever had!
I just completed my EWP licence with Ascent Training Solutions, and I can’t recommend them highly enough – especially Theo. From the moment the course started, Theo was professional, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. He didn’t just teach the content – he made sure we understood it, making safety and confidence the top priorities.

Theo’s training style is next level – clear explanations, real-world examples, and a good dose of humour to keep everyone engaged. The practical side was run smoothly and efficiently, and I walked away feeling 100% confident operating an EWP.

If you're thinking about doing any kind of training – don't waste time looking around. Just go to Ascent and ask for Theo. Absolute legend. 💯

Thanks again Theo & the Ascent team – you guys set the standard!

have done two tickets with these guys they are absolutely amazing instructors

I recently completed a course at ascent training centre in richlands, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the overall experience. From the moment I enrolled, the process was smooth and professional. The administrative staff were helpful, responsive, and made sure I had everything I needed before starting.

The training itself was well-structured, hands-on, and focused on real-world applications. Theo was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and made even the more complex topics easy to understand. Their industry experience really came through in the way they taught, using practical examples that helped tie everything together.

The facilities were modern, clean, and fully equipped with the tools and equipment we needed. Whether it was the classroom materials or the hands-on training environment, everything was designed to help students succeed.

I also appreciated the supportive learning atmosphere. The trainers encouraged questions, gave constructive feedback, and ensured everyone was keeping up before moving on.

Overall, I highly recommend ascent training to anyone looking to gain new skills, upskill for work, or get certified in their field. It’s clear they take pride in delivering high-quality education and genuinely care about student success
