Why teams in Peterhead book this
We've delivered forestry training across Peterhead for refresher every 3 years; winter cohorts when the forwarder fleet is down.. The pattern is consistent: Lone forestry operators routinely miss refresher windows because cohorts don't run nearby. On-site delivery on your equipment, with refresher cycles planned into your operation, is the cure.
Forestry & Land Management context: Deeside forestry blocks mix steep ground, weather and lone-working — operator competence is the only on-ground control.

FAQs
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- How long does forestry 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.
- Do you cover sites near Peterhead?
- Yes — the same instructors cover the surrounding NE Scotland area weekly from Aboyne, so adjacent-yard cohorts add little to no travel cost.
