Description

The TLI27121 Certificate II in Rail Infrastructure is designed for individuals entering the rail industry who want practical, job-ready skills to work on rail networks across Australia. Rail environments are highly regulated, safety-critical and operationally demanding — and this qualification prepares you for exactly that.

You will develop foundational skills in rail safety, track work, hand and power tool use, communication systems and working within rail protection frameworks. Strong emphasis is placed on following safeworking procedures, hazard identification, working around live rail corridors and understanding the responsibilities required when operating in rail environments.

Training combines structured learning with practical application, ensuring you can contribute effectively to track maintenance, installation and infrastructure projects. Whether supporting rail upgrades, maintenance shutdowns or major transport developments, this course builds the discipline, awareness and technical foundation employers expect.

By completion, you will be prepared to work as a rail labourer or track worker and progress into specialised rail pathways such as track certifier, plant operator or rail protection roles.
