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.

Do you deliver site safety on-site in North-East Scotland?

Yes — we travel to your yard or site in North-East Scotland. On-site delivery means the assessment is on your kit, not a generic test ground.

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.

Why teams in North-East Scotland book this

North-East Scotland is built on fish-processing, and Wet floors + cold-store FLT + pedestrians is the recurring HSE finding in NE seafood plants. On-site Site Safety Training is how we close that gap without pulling operators off the rota.

Fish & Seafood Processing context: Peterhead and the Broch run cold-store FLT, pallet-truck pedestrian flow and rapid temperature shifts on the same shift.
