Just finished my novice training course for counterbalance trucks, I was nervous to start off with but my instructor Paul made feel at ease with everything we were covering. I would absolutely recommend this company if every instructor is like Paul, and Im sure they are. I got everything I could of wanted and more from this course. 10 out of 10.

Toby, great overall instructor, communicated well throughout the course, good use of technics to help us remember certain things (e.g GOBO, Gear, Observation, (Hand)Brake, Observation). Good obstacle course using pallets to get us used to working in confined spaces "if you can work in a confined space you can work in any space" -Toby, if there was any questions or we was struggling with anything he was more than happy to help no matter how many times we asked. Would recommend this company, and specifically trainer, to anyone.
