Trusted CPCS Training For Southampton Clients

Delivered to clients throughout Southampton and Hampshire, our CPCS training program aims to demonstrate the expertise and capabilities of plant operators. This comprehensive program evaluates experience in the field, awareness of safety practices, and professional proficiency - all critical elements for operating heavy machinery with caution and efficiency. By increasing productivity and effectiveness on the job, all construction projects can be completed at a superior level in a shorter timeframe. Numerous companies in Southampton have seized the chance to provide their employees with construction training, resulting in significant benefits for their company.

As a top CPCS testing facility in the UK, we provide a variety of construction plant courses, an exceptional on-site atmosphere, and certified trainers and testers. Our priority is to offer you the necessary training services, including 1-10 day CPCS courses. With our highly qualified trainers, we are dedicated to equipping you with the necessary skills for workplace safety and efficiency.

The CPCS testing will involve a one-on-one theoretical examination, as well as a practical assessment. The theory portion will be monitored by our testers, while video recording may be used for the practical test if necessary. To maintain expected standards, random monitoring of these examinations can occur. Both segments aim to evaluate competency in operating various types of plant machinery.

The majority of CPCS testing must be completed at a designated CPCS test centre, unless it falls under an off-centre category (refer to our training guidance for on/off centre categories). However, we do offer the option to carry out certain off-centre categories on-site. Our purpose-built facilities in Basingstoke, Hampshire and Reading, Berkshire span over 5 acres and can accommodate up to 24 tests per day, depending on the category of the course. This allows for convenient scheduling of work gangs and the possibility for operatives to complete multiple categories in a single day.

For those located in Southampton, Hampshire or nearby areas, get in contact with us at 01189 700 200 to discuss your CPCS card training needs. Our courses cater to various skills necessary for construction work, such as CPCS vehicle banksman training and more. Let us equip you with the experience required to excel in your field.

***If your company pays LEVY then we can process levy claims on your behalf, as well as all certification and card applications.
