How experienced are the instructors?

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

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 North-East Scotland?

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

What happens if the weather closes the site?

We carry on with theory and assessment indoors where possible; if the practical isn't safe we re-plan the practical day — no extra charge.

What happens if an operator fails?

We re-coach on the spot where possible and re-assess; if the gap is bigger we plan a short repeat block rather than a full re-run.
