Just a few more photo’s from courses carried out in 2023 all over the South West for many different companies. 2023 hopefully will continue to remain busy for us.

Its been a while since I’ve posted on here, such is the demand for SMC Training Service in 2023, this latest blog is the first time in 3 months I’ve had a chance to show off what we’ve been up to in 2023. A huge variety of courses, all over the South West. Demand for Steve to train is busier than ever.

More photos from a recent Dumper course conducted on a Saturday for a very good customer. Also, i have received a lovely review from a new customer who I spent 4 days with last week.

Ever wonder how companies fill up the Dumpy bags with loose material, special attachments such as the one pictured above, a local company asked for some refresher training for their staff, while we were on-site we also added the bag filling attachment onto their certificate’s. All part of the service.

I really enjoy training on these machines, they are used in a lot if various industries from roofing, building, agricultural, animal feed and many other environments. They are very versatile and require that the operators are also familiar with any attachments that they are likely to use as part of their job roles. last week saw me training on these for 4 days in different area’s of the South West and on very different machines, although they are both classed as a J2 category machines (with a boom length of under 9 metres). Quite a few experienced operators were assessed, all of them demonstrating skill, good control and an excellent awareness of their surroundings, well done to everyone that completed their training with SMC Training Service Ltd. To enquire as to whether we can help to keep both yourself or your company compliant email me : steve@smctrainingservice.co.uk or ring 07870 901167.

Last Friday saw SMC Training Services annual Accreditation audit, an auditor (TSA) from ITSSAR visited me on site to ensure we remain compliant with their strict requirements, not just with setting up practical courses but also all paperwork system’s are up to date & current. Met a new auditor – who was both professional & extremely helpful, and also offered me guidance on a variety of things. The audit went very well, with no problems at all. Many thanks go out to Otter Garden Centres for the use of their facilities.

Just a small selection of training courses carried out in the lovely weather we’ve had recently, too be honest i’d welcome some warm rain at the moment!! To discuss your training requirements, call Steve on 07870 901167 or email : steve@smctrainingservice.co.uk to see if i can help your company or individual’s out. Please plan well ahead though as we are exceptionally busy currently.

Spent 2 days training with a delegate recently showing him how to attach & detach the transportable lift truck on & off a lorry trailer. 2 long but excellent days spent familiarising to the unit preparing Miri of Mecano SW Ltd for the delivery of his own machine and trailer combination. He also had 7 hrs CPC training on day 2 of the course to count towards his new 35 hour total required to obtain his next LGV driver CPC card. To discuss your company training or CPC requirements contact Steve on 07870 901167 or email : steve@smctrainingservice.co.uk

Its always nice to receive feedback from the customers that i have spent time training, this week i had 2 emails from separate companies with some lovely feedback regarding the forklift training conducted for their staff in the last 2 weeks.

More photo’s of courses run in the South West in the last three months for both new & returning customers. A variety of Accredited courses on display here, from AITT or ITSSAR accredited forklift or MEWP training to both ALLMI and ITSSAR Lorry Loader training for both Novice & experienced delegates.
