Audit findings this prevents

FAQs

How far do you travel to North-East Scotland?
29 road miles from our Aboyne (AB34) base, ~45 mins via A944/AWPR. Short travel is why single-operator cohorts in North-East Scotland are still economic for us to run.
Which regulations does telehandler map to here?
LOLER 1998 and PUWER 1998. We print the mapping on the evidence pack so the construction client or principal contractor can tie the certificate to the reg they cited.
Is this course right for fleet managers?
It's built for that buyer profile. The paperwork and cohorting are tuned to what fleet managers are usually measured on.
Is telehandler accredited?
Yes — accredited certificates aligned with LOLER 1998 and PUWER 1998 are issued to successful candidates.
Is it worth running a cohort for 1–2 operators?
Yes — small cohorts work in North-East Scotland because travel from Aboyne is short. We don't charge a minimum-headcount premium.
