Other Associated Courses

We also offer a number of associated courses which link to the above.

N035 MEWP Supervisor Awareness

This is one of the new awareness courses introduced by NPORS for supervisors, associated courses also cover Plant and Fork Lift Supervisor Awareness.

N723 Harness and Fall Arrest

Harnesses are used in many working at height environments and with the MEWP operations.

N010 Telehandler

The above two courses are the main training options for the machinery, which you need first before completing the relevant lifting options above as add on courses.

N133 Plant Machinery Marshall

We always pop in the Marshall courses in these associates sections, as they are relevant to any site where machinery will be moving around.

S001 Safety Awareness

As with the Marshall courses, Site safety is always relevant to an active workplace.

How we can help

We appreciate how complicated it can be to try to arrange training, I’m Emma I’ve been with Kentra for 18 years and still have to look up ratios and variations as all the courses are different.  So please, drop us a line, get in touch we are happy to discuss all the options, we like nothing more than to get a timetable drawn up on a spreadsheet to help our customers organise what’s needed.

If you would like more information about the courses we offer, click HERE for a link to our brochure and let us help you though.
