Stuck spinning your wheels trying to break into civil construction?
Without the right ticket, it’s tough to get taken seriously in roadwork crews or earthmoving teams. But here’s the truth: a roller ticket is one of the fastest, most affordable, and in-demand civil tickets available. In just a few days, you could be behind the controls of a full-size road compactor, flattening surfaces and barriers, both literally and in your career.
At My Solution Training’s Aratula facility, just outside Ipswich and under an hour from both Brisbane and the Gold Coast, new entrants get one-on-one roller training on mine-spec equipment in a large-scale simulated worksite. This isn’t just classroom theory, it’s real compaction, slope practice, and roller control training on actual dirt, guided by instructors with years on road and mine projects.
Why a Roller Ticket Could Be Your Secret Weapon in Civil Construction
If you’re looking to break into roadworks, subdivision prep, or civil crew operations, the roller is often your best way in. Road rollers, or compactors, are essential for compressing soil, preparing pads, and finishing surfaces on everything from housing estates to mine haul roads.
At My Solution Training, roller training is done on actual full-sized machines in their 25-acre Aratula training site. While it’s not a live mine, the environment is designed to mimic real mining and road conditions, offering a practical experience that beats any simulator or confined training yard.
Even if you’ve never sat in a piece of heavy machinery before, MST’s relaxed one-on-one style ensures you’ll feel supported from the first day. Instructors break down compaction theory, safety procedures, and machine control into practical steps so you can get comfortable and competent fast.
You’ll walk away not just with a roller ticket, but the confidence to apply it on-site straight away.
Get Qualified Fast and Start Earning in Civil Projects
In civil and mining, you can’t step onto a worksite without the right ticket. With My Solution Training, you’ll earn the nationally recognised RIIMPO317F, Conduct Roller Operations qualification, delivered by Infront Training (RTO 31137). This competency is accepted across Australia on road jobs, construction contracts, subdivisions, and mine infrastructure sites.
Unlike short online-only courses or those relying on simulators, My Solution Training’s roller course is built around actual in-cab experience. You’ll train on real rollers, including pad compaction, edge control, reversing, and slope management, key skills required in the field.
The instructors at Aratula don’t just tick boxes; they’re seasoned professionals who’ve worked on highways, haul roads, and council road upgrades. They’ll teach you how to do things the right way, from walkarounds to spotting hazards, so you not only pass the course but start your job ready to contribute.
It’s this hands-on realism that sets you apart when applying for jobs or pitching for subcontractor work.
Why Employers Prioritise Roller Ticket Holders with Real Training
Practical experience on proper equipment makes you stand out in tenders and interviews
In the eyes of a project manager or site foreman, having a civil machinery ticket isn’t enough. What they want is someone who’s already comfortable operating gear safely and efficiently, and that comes down to how you trained.
My Solution Training’s compactor course stands out because of its realism. Every session takes place on mine-spec rollers in a terrain-rich environment, offering exposure to actual slope work, rolling patterns, and soil types, not just flat practice pads.
Whether it’s a local council road project or a contractor bidding for state infrastructure jobs, they’re far more likely to favour a candidate who’s been trained in a real-world setting. The MST certificate is backed by a Registered Training Organisation, meaning it’s nationally accredited and employer-recognised.
By adding a roller ticket to your skill set, you’re not only making yourself more employable, you’re positioning yourself for higher wages and more flexible site placements. It also opens doors to other roles such as water cart operator or spotter, further diversifying your career options in the civil and mining sectors.
