If you’re working in civil construction or looking to join working in the industry, you know the jobs don’t wait. Projects keep rolling, deadlines don’t pause, and getting time off for training can be tough. That’s why OTJT offers flexible civil construction & earthmoving training that works around you. Whether you’re chasing your first ticket or upskilling on the tools, our training helps you build skills without stepping away from site for a week.Think online theory options and small group practical sessions. No fluff. Just real skills, real fast.

What Flexible Learning Looks Like at OTJT

We’re not your average training provider. At OTJT, you can:

  • Book practical days to match your site roster, spend as much time in a machine until they’re ready.
  • Complete theory online, anytime with built-in assessments.
  • Training slots available every week.

These flexible options are most popular for earthmoving and civil training, ideal for labourers, plant operators and small site crews.
