In order to go on advanced 4x4 trips members will have needed to complete 4x4 driver awareness training course which is included as part of your membership. For any questions on Training, please email the Training officer at:
Training@ineos4x4clubqld.com.au
As an alternative members can also sign up for the RIIVEH305F Operate and Maintain a 4WD Vehicle on the 4x4 qld website https://www.4wdqld.com.au/training (at own cost) or if members have a valid certificate of completing the course, they can optionally skip our course (but you will miss a lot of fun and we don't recommend this)
Every financial member of the Ineos 4x4 Club Queensland is allowed to participate in trainings organised by 4wd Queensland. We do encourage people to sign up with other grenadier owners, because training is a great way to meat and learn to know other club members! So reach out to the training officer if you see a training you find interesting and we will see if more members want to join that one!
