Some students may primarily want practical training before returning home. In that case, the useful outcomes include inspection, safe controls, starting and shutdown, manoeuvring, machine-specific work, daily checks, fault reporting, worksite awareness and safe parking.<\/p>\n      <p>If your intention is to return home after training, also check how training certificates and operator licences are treated by employers or regulators in your own country.
