Course Overview

If your business employs the services of owner drivers to deliver your goods across the country then our Owner Driver Arrangements course is for you.

With different legislation applicable in different states, it can become a minefield when negotiating contracts of carriage and as regulation tightens it's important for businesses to understand the environment in which they are required to operate within.

This is a unique area that requires expert knowledge. Nigel Ward has negotiated 'owner driver' arrangements across Australia for the past 30 years and will share his insights over two half-days to enable you to upskill for your future negotiations.
