Get Your Machine Operating Tickets & Training in Australia
If you want to become a machine operator, you’ll need the correct training and nationally recognised qualifications — this is where to get them.
If you’re serious about landing a FIFO machine operator role, having the right tickets and qualifications gives you a huge advantage.
Employers are far more likely to hire operators who already hold recognised tickets — it shows commitment and puts you ahead of the competition.

Where I Recommend Getting Your Tickets & Training
The provider I recommend is Cailin Mining & Civil.
They’re an Irish-owned training company trusted by loads of people breaking into FIFO. Their training is practical, hands-on, and nationally recognised, so you’re actually learning how to operate the machines — not just ticking a box.
A huge advantage is that training takes place on an active quarry site, giving you real-world experience that closely matches actual FIFO conditions.
Even better, you can return to the facility to practise as much as you need, so you’re confident and comfortable in the machine before heading to site.
This realistic approach is a big reason why so many people who train with Cailin go on to secure FIFO roles across WA.

Real Success Stories
My girlfriend had zero machine operating experience when she started.
She completed Cailin’s starter bundle, got her water cart, roller, and moxy tickets, and is now working FIFO on a 3:1 roster in the Pilbara.
I’ve personally sent many people to Cailin Mining & Civil for training.
The conversion rate from training into real FIFO work is extremely high, and most of the people I’ve referred are now working on sites across Western Australia. This can be you!
