Industry Culture
In order to attract new people in, we want to show that we are a diverse and inclusive industry that welcomes people from all backgrounds, genders, cultures and abilities. Our Driving Change Diversity initiative highlights those transport companies who are creating diverse and inclusive workplaces that welcome all those who want to be a part of our industry.
We will share the stories of our Diversity Champions and how they are working to bring about change and awareness in their own workplaces. Also providing tips and tools to help our industry adapt to the changing needs and expectations of our future workforce.

Qualification Pathway
Driver traineeship – For us to grow the pool of professional drivers, at all levels, we need to invest in training and development of new people, from the ground up. Employers provide an environment that supports learning, both on the job and online, using industry recognised tertiary qualifications to provide theory knowledge alongside in cab training behind the wheel – investing in training and development to produce qualified, skilled and safe drivers.
Driver Boost – Professional truck driving requires skills and abilities that are often only acknowledged by the class of licence held. Our Boost Drivers are those professional, experienced drivers who took the opportunity to gain industry recognised tertiary qualifications and refresh their knowledge to improve their driving and progress their careers.

Attracting Talent
Attracting talent and promoting our industry is key to ensuring a sustainable workforce. Reaching school leavers and those considering a career change and showing that we offer a pathway into industry is vital – career days, industry led events, school talks and social media campaigns are ways to achieve this
Road to success programme
We asked employers and candidates to talk about their involvement in the Road to Success programme. Helping to fill a driver shortage and providing training to new drivers are just some of he benefits they have experienced. Watch the video here
