Heavy vehicle training is provided by TISC in a variety of modern vehicles. These vehicles range from Light Truck to Multi Combination (B Double). Training sessions are two hours in duration. The amount of training sessions conducted can depend on the participant's current level of competence, however as a rough guide, the average amount of training is approximately eight hours.

TISC is also the ACT licensing authority for all heavy vehicles and tests can be arranged through our office during business hours. As well, TISC offers high quality defensive driving courses with specific orientation to heavy vehicles.
