• Learn how to clean and inspect vehicles and machinery for plant materials
• Understand government legislation and requirements

The training is being conducted by leaders in biosecurity training, TH9 Outdoor Services, based at Nobby (near Toowoomba).  Participants will receive a certificate from NQ Dry Tropics as a record of their attendance.
