FAQs
- Will this pass a principal-contractor audit?
- The course is built around the evidence auditors actually ask for: operator photo ID, assessment date, regulation mapping and refresher window. We return the pack inside the working week.
- Can you build a fleet schedule across multiple yards?
- Yes. We cohort across yards in the same week so the same standard is evidenced fleet-wide and refresher windows line up.
- How long does agricultural training take?
- For refresher cohorts most operators clear inside a day; novice candidates need longer. We plan duration around your team's prior experience, not a default course length.
- 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.
- 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.
