The National Training Framework for Temporary Traffic Management

The National Training Framework for Temporary Traffic Management (NTFTTM) ensures individuals working in the industry are appropriately trained and that their knowledge and skills are maintained.

Tasmania implemented the NTFTTM in 2024, and the NTFTTM is the only traffic management training framework able to be delivered in Tasmania.

The National Training Framework is designed under the Vocational Education and Training (VET) framework based on Skill Sets and Units of Competencies and provides:

  • graduated learning across Temporary Traffic Management categories
  • greater opportunities and a more structured genuine career path
  • theoretical (classroom) training by an approved training provider and practical (experience) training through worksite placement
  • national recognition - individuals who have successfully completed the training requirements in one state/territory will have this training recognised in another participating state/territory. Please note there may be additional localised training requirements in states and territories specific to the jurisdiction.

More information on the NTFTTM can be found on the Austroads website.
