Will our Westhill Tech Park site suit on-site delivery?

Westhill Tech Park sites are mostly subsea fabrication yards, tooling sheds, R&D pads, which suits on-site delivery well — we need a safe practical area, a room or cabin for theory, and access for our vehicle off the A944.

How far do you travel to Westhill Tech Park?

25 road miles from our Aboyne (AB34) base, ~40 mins via A944. Short travel is why single-operator cohorts in Westhill Tech Park are still economic for us to run.

Will this satisfy our insurer?

Yes — the accredited certificate plus evidence pack is the standard underwriters accept for the operator-competence renewal question.

How often is refresher training required?

Refresher cycles typically run every 3 years, sooner if a near-miss, machine change or audit finding triggers it.

Can you cohort operators with weaker English?

Yes — we adjust pace and use translated handouts where needed. Assessment is competence-based, not language-based.
