How much does managing mobile plant cost for a team in Stonehaven yards?

Day rates for managing mobile plant typically fall inside the band the course brief lists. Cohort size, novice/refresher split and travel are the main drivers — we send a fixed price, not a day rate × headcount.

Is it worth running a cohort for 1–2 operators?

Yes — small cohorts work in Stonehaven yards because travel from Aboyne is short. We don't charge a minimum-headcount premium.

Is managing mobile plant accredited?

Yes — accredited certificates aligned with CDM 2015, PUWER 1998 and HSG144 are issued to successful candidates.

Is this course right for site teams?

It's built for that buyer profile. The paperwork and cohorting are tuned to what site teams are usually measured on.

What if we need to rebook?

We hold dates flexibly. If site conditions change, we move the cohort — there's no rebooking fee for genuine site reasons.

Why teams in Stonehaven yards book this
