Over the years our consultants have written, created and provided a wide range of training courses and training packages to some of the UK, European and US owned leading blue chip companies.

They have provided training to everyone from European and UK based Health and Safety Directors, Health and Safety Managers, UK and European based Engineering and Project Managers, Project Engineers and a wide range of client front line staff such as Maintenance Managers, Maintenance Engineers, Production Supervisors and Machine Operators.

We have a modular training package which can be configured to suit your own needs, or we can work with the client if you there is a bespoke requirement or need for specific training – for example, on a specific ‘type C’ standard for a machine or machines the client operates or on a wide range of other topics.

Our courses are operated on a highly interactive basis, and fully involve those attending. Additionally, during the training we always try to spend time in the client’s production areas to identify and look at real examples of where the training we have provided can be applied to the client’s own real-world applications, scenarios and situations.

Clients can choose from the following modules / sections of our training offer (other modules are available), but please bear in mind some modules are more detailed and last longer than others depending upon the topic being provided – please contact us for more information:
