Bobcats are essential in the workplace and are operated throughout the world in warehouses, construction sites, factories and many more places. Adequate training is required before operating on site, the three stages of training must be complete before an ‘Authorisation to Operate’ is issued in the workplace. 

We are accredited by RTITB, and are regularly audited and monitored to ensure our training meets the standard.

Our courses will vary in duration, some factors effecting this are truck type, number of delegates and also if the course is run with a restriction due to the operators daily work.
