How experienced are the instructors?

Our instructors are operator-trained, audit-experienced and have decades on NE Scotland sites — not classroom-only.

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.

Have you worked with sites near Westhill Tech Park before?

Regularly — we work around Subsea 7 Westhill, TechnipFMC, Baker Hughes Westhill. That means we already know the gate, induction and permit routine, so the cohort starts on time.

Can novice and refresher run in the same cohort?

Yes. We run mixed cohorts routinely — the instructor splits the day so novice candidates aren't slowed by refresher assessment.

Do you cover sites near Westhill Tech Park?

Yes — the same instructors cover the surrounding NE Scotland area weekly from Aboyne, so adjacent-yard cohorts add little to no travel cost.
