First Class Excavator Training in Padworth

Our excavator training courses will give you the skills, expertise and knowledge to work as a plant operator in the construction industry.

As a plant operator working throughout Padworth, you will operate plant machinery to excavate, transfer loads, move and lift materials to given specifications and locations. You will also learn how to work efficiently and safely as part of a team and how to operate and prepare different types of plant equipment and machinery depending on which pathway you choose to take. For example, you may wish to specialise in areas such as forming, attachments, road/rail, transporting loads, specialist lifting, excavating and constructing, erecting and dismantling or cranes. The Certificate and Diploma are differentiated by the complexity, size and safety issues surrounding a piece of machinery.

You will be required to complete all mandatory units and the required number of optional units for each pathway. These differ for each pathway.
