@NickSam121 We are sorry that we have not answered before and we will make sure that it does not happen again and thank you for bring it to our attention. To answer your questions - We do not handle agricultural placements, but we will put you into contact with companies that do. Our training is competence based, so we have a lot of practical training on the machinery. Then you are assessed to see if you are competent to operate the machinery. We also calculate our crops in acres.

Is that so easy?Travelling in australia,taking the training course with costs at about 1100$ and begin working as a combine harvester driver?When the courses take place? Earlier than the harvest season or during that?After those cources,will i have the CDL licence or the Certificate III in agriculture as you say in your site? Why in your site,i see the Certificate III will cost me 3600$?The profits are 15000$?However,those are lots of money depending on the economical crisis.Answer me

[AgTRAINING]

4months of work-15000$...to low man...i love this big equipment but ill rather go to Afganistan or Iraq...a lot of more money just to drive trucks...35000$ for month...but I'll go with my nation army there...:D

[Judadiah]

I'm from Texas, U.S.A. And I've run several harvests through the plains including New Holland, Case, and John Deere equipment, I have a CDL license and plenty of hours in a tractor/graincart. Tell me, how long is the harvest/wheat season there and how much money can a man make over that period of time in Australia? Thanks.

[AgTRAINING]

Justin, the harvest in Australia last about 16 weeks from middle to late September and runs to about the middle of January. In this time the minuim you could expect to earn is about $15,000 aud gross depending on the weather. Contractors pay different rates, so you could earn more.

[ChallengerMT875B]

when i´m older i want to drive a combine in australia or the usa

[Gatiz666]

I am interested in going to work in australia. I'm tractor driver and combine driver. I can work 2-3 months. I'm from Poland and I have to repurchase in both sides ticket. How much can I earn by these 2-3 months of work to subtract the ticket price and where I can sleep ?

[miroM1984]

1) How much is the price for your courses??

2) Can I go and work for only december and January

3) Can I earn enough money to buy return ticket to Europe

[AgTRAINING]

The Header Course costs $1100. This price includes all accommodation, meals and training material. Most Farmers like you to stay for 3 months but you could still come for the 2 months. You are able to get a job before you come over, if you want more information on that please contact me again. You should also be able to earn enough for a return plain ticket but I can't promise that. As i said if you want anything else please contact us again.
