(latest NCVER data)RIIBHD301E Conduct surface blast hole drilling operations prepares drillers to mark out accurate drill patterns, set up and operate drill rigs and keep equipment in working order, so blasting outcomes on mine, quarry and civil sites are not compromised by poorly placed holes. RTOs delivering drilling and blasting programs can use it where learners work under minimal supervision, and RIIBHD301E training resources support both the planning and rig-based elements of delivery.
Learners develop skills in interpreting drilling plans and documentation, preparing work areas, adjusting and marking out drill patterns, conducting pre-start checks, breaking out rods and changing bits, conducting quality checks at set depths, relocating and shutting down rigs and completing operator maintenance and reports.
Start with our RIIBHD301E RTO training materials rather than writing drill rig and pattern content from scratch. Purchase RTO materials and give trainers RIIBHD301E training materials that link documentation, site preparation and rig operation in one sequence.
These RIIBHD301E training materials provide a prepared foundation for teaching and assessing surface blast hole drilling operations. Purchase RTO materials to reduce development time and start with RIIBHD301E learning materials your team can align to its own drill rigs and site procedures.
Check the latest unit requirements on training.gov.au before delivery. Your team should contextualise and validate these RIIBHD301E training materials for its learner cohort, delivery model and selected compliance environment. Use the supplied mapping as a starting point when reviewing your RIIBHD301E materials against the Standards for RTOs.
RIIBHD301E Conduct surface blast hole drilling operations covers marking out drill patterns, setting up, operating and relocating drill rigs and carrying out equipment maintenance and inspection in the resources and infrastructure industries. It applies to drillers who work under minimal supervision across varied work contexts.
The unit addresses five core areas:
Yes. The unit requires evidence of conducting surface blast hole drilling operations on at least two occasions, so your team should plan access to a suitable rig and site. The RIIBHD301E learning materials support the underpinning knowledge, but they do not replace practical operation.
Yes. The editable files let your team add manufacturer specifications, site drilling plans and local dust suppression procedures where contextualisation is permitted.
The Session Plan, PowerPoint Presentation and Class Activities Book give trainers a clear sequence for explaining tolerances, mark-out and the authorisation of pattern changes before learners move to the rig.
No outcome can be promised. The materials are developed as compliant learning resources with training package requirements in mind, but your organisation remains responsible for validating them against its own sites and delivery arrangements.
No. The unlimited student licence allows the purchasing organisation to use them with all enrolled drilling learners, subject to the applicable licence conditions.
