I’ve gone through all my HRW training through Saferight. Absolutely wonderful trainers!!
Very good happy place to do your training, the instructors are just lovely.. very professional, they made you feel welcome and relaxed , answered all my questions, very satisfied
Best training center around Perth, quality, educational and best value for money course!
Very knowledgeable and enjoyable as far as training courses go, would recommend to anyone interested in furthering their training.
I had the privilege of attending the Advanced Scaffolding course at Saferight Training, and let me tell you, it was an absolute blast!
Confined spaces was great all the trainers are experienced and competent here
Finished a Tele-Handler course here a few weeks ago, and after finishing a rigging course at one of the other major training companies in Perth I have to say Saferight is definitely the better of the two..
Very good experience and the training was informative, the instructor presented well. The practicals were set up really well also
The 4WD course was very informative, particularly the practical aspect which developed fundamental skills for traversing rough terrain!
Very interesting course. Gives you confidence in learning to trust the vehicles and confidence in driving off-road - 4WD.
