Why teams in Portlethen book this
Most of the Site Safety Training bookings we take from Portlethen land because of one thing: competence paperwork fails an audit faster than people expect. We run the course on your site, against your equipment, and return paperwork inside the working week.

FAQs
- Do you deliver site safety on-site in Portlethen?
- Yes — we travel to your yard or site in Portlethen, around 36 road miles from our Aboyne (AB34) base. On-site delivery means the assessment is on your kit, not a generic test ground.
- Will a principal accept this for a construction site?
- Yes — the certificate maps to the regs the principal's auditor cites, and we'll talk to the principal's HSE team directly if useful.
- Do you train outdoors year-round in Portlethen?
- Yes — we plan the day around weather windows. NE Scotland conditions are exactly what your operators face anyway.
- What's the lead time?
- Most Portlethen bookings go in within 5–10 working days. Audit-deadline cover regularly lands inside a week.
- Can you cohort operators with weaker English?
- Yes — we adjust pace and use translated handouts where needed. Assessment is competence-based, not language-based.
