Novice Training (Where there has been little or no experience or no proof).
Duration of course is dependant on number of candidates and category of plant on which training is to be given. Candidates are required to undertake basic training in line with the HSE’s Approved Code of Practice (L117) (Link to relevant extract of code of practice)
Experienced Operator training. (Where there is claimed experience from the operator)
We can arrange short assessment courses to judge the ability & training needs of experienced operators who have had little or no formal training.
On completion of the candidates profile sheet detailing any previous experience and after the initial assessment, the duration of the course can be shortened at the instructors’ discretion.
An Experienced Operator is someone who:
• has 6 months minimum operating experience on the category of plant being applied for, which can be verified by the current or previous employer.
Refresher: (Where evidence of previous formal training exists)
If an initial assessment clearly identifies that the candidate does not require further training, they may undertake refresher & re-test training, which need not be of long duration.
Conversions: (Evidence of certification on another category required)
An operator with basic training on one category of plant or handling attachment cannot safely operate others, for which they have not been trained, without additional, conversion training.
Duration determined by completion of candidates profile sheet and category of plant converting from / to.
