These courses are ideal for companies who run light vehicles in their fleets. The programmes ensure that all drivers are professionally trained, and covers skill assessment, theoretical courses and manoeuvring training.
Assessments, Coaching & Training
Our in cab programme is ideal for companies who want to assess drivers before employing them or to support operators ‘on the job’ with instruction, coaching and training in real life conditions.
TR Driver Training not only conducts licencing, but also competency assessments on a wide range of vehicles and equipment. The Health and Safety at Work Act introduced in April 2016 not only requires all operators of equipment to be appropriately licenced, but also for the competency level of the operator to be assessed.
Forklifts are always operated in environments where accidents can happen in an instant, exposing operators and organisations to major liability. Our forklift programme covers all the bases from refreshers to license endorsements and full courses.
These courses cover Class 2 through to Class 5 heavy vehicle licenses, allowing drivers to obtain a particular license without having to wait six months from the time they get their learner license. Programmes include accelerated courses and vehicle specific endorsements.
