  1. It certainly is a big machine and we have these in Australia. Here people learn to drive these machines in a factory or in a private company. What sort of qualification do your students get at the end of their course?

  2. In our program, students may complete both theoretical and practical test before receiving a license for this machine.
    Has your students possibility to drive these machines in your school?

  4. Elinor our students who are with private companies , especially mining companies in Western Australia, have many possibilities to practice driving these huge machines. They are then given a license and they can operate the machines themselves. Very few vocational colleges teach these skills in Australia.We rely much more on private training. In the private company they do both theory and practical and there is a strong focus on safety. Is this the case in Sweden?
