Re: Newest Accredited 4x4 Drivers
Well done! Congrats, guys!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Thanks Mark, we're just doing our bit for the 4x4 community, and more importantly, the environment... The real stars of the show are the guys who go to the trouble of attending our training...OOOOMS wrote:And congrats to Thys and his Team for all the dedication and commitment down there in CT

Re: Newest Accredited 4x4 Drivers
Die koste beloop tans R1500 per persoon vir die kursus.
Ongelukkig kan ek net namens African Offroad (Weskaap) gesels, maar ons is ook bereid om Hilux4x4-klublede 'n groepafslag te gee in die Weskaap, as ons 'n groot genoeg groep bymekaar kan kry.
Ons sal ook opleiding aanbied in die meer afgelee gebiede van die Weskaap solank die groep groot genoeg is sodat ons ten minste die reiskoste en ander uitgawes te dek.
Tot dusver het African Offroad Academy (Weskaap) 12 lede van die Hilux4x4 Forum/Club in die Weskaap ge-akkrediteer.

Re: Newest Accredited 4x4 Drivers
And so the list grows. Another 2 Hilux4x4 members became accredited drivers on the weekend. Congratulations to Gerrie van Eeden and Boetie Potgieter (truckin) for achieving this milestone. Thanks for attending our training and for a great weekend of learning.
I must say that our platkar trail (2 Oceans) is getting more and more challenging as time goes by. It seems like Wimpie is not spending a lot of time on track maintenance, and with recent veld fires burning all the vegetation there will be some serious soil erosion when the big rains come. We had some fun yesterday!

Re: Newest Accredited 4x4 Drivers
In the Joburg area, which is the best offroad training academy and what qualification should a beginner go for? I looked on the African offroad academy website and there are numerous qualifications that one can get.
All you guys that are not yet qualified. I suggest that you get qualified before the legislation comes into effect. It will only become more expensive and difficult once the legislation has been passed.
Lets get together and do this thing.

Re: Newest Accredited 4x4 Drivers
The main thing you should look out for is whether the training institution where you are going to spend your hard earned money, is TETA accredited to train Unit Standard 254135 - Apply the techniques for operating four wheel drive (4WD) vehicles, in on-road and off-road conditions, or not. This unit standard is the one that is the minimum requirement, according to the Draft Norms & Standards as they stand.Racing snake wrote:In the Joburg area, which is the best offroad training academy and what qualification should a beginner go for? I looked on the African offroad academy website and there are numerous qualifications that one can get.
The Advanced unit standard (US254154) can only be done once you were found competent in the entry level US254135.
There are currently only 2 TETA accredited Training Service Providers in South Africa, of which African Offroad Academy is one. Contact Tinus Botha at AOA and he'll put you in contact with a training facilitator in your area.

Re: Newest Accredited 4x4 Drivers
Geluk, ouens! ... Lyk my dat 3 van hulle SFA's ry!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
