Course summary

Training starts off around the instructor’s laptop for the health & safety part. Then onto the practical part & assessment. Ideally, we require a room for the theory, and an area away from pedestrains and vehicles for the practical.

Do not worry too much about delays and staff being pulled away etc. as this is expected when doing on-site training. In terms of space, we work with whatever is available.
