FAQs

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.
How experienced are the instructors?
Our instructors are operator-trained, audit-experienced and have decades on NE Scotland sites — not classroom-only.
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.
Do you cover sites near Stonehaven?
Yes — the same instructors cover the surrounding NE Scotland area weekly from Aboyne, so adjacent-yard cohorts add little to no travel cost.
How long does manufacturing 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.
