Our raceday major sponsors are the LDO Group, who are a registered training organisation (RTO) providing quality training, assessment, licensing, and certification under the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF). They specialise in training and induction for the mining, civil construction, manufacturing, rural industry and local government sectors, and also conduct SafeWork NSW licensing. Their experienced trainers and assessors upskill your workforce when and where it matters most to your schedule. They offer flexible options such as on the job or at our NSW facilities located in Gunnedah and Dubbo.
