With over 70 years of experience in handling X-ray equipment, we are uniquely positioned to provide training courses for staff engaged in X-ray activity.

Suitable for short-term to long-term operations, for re-positioning loads at ground level and for lifting loads up to great heights. For example, a single machine may be used for lifting steel roof sections into position in London, unloading an industrial machine weighing 60 tonnes in Cardiff and erecting a tower crane in Edinburgh, all within the space of a week! Examples of those who would be suited to attending this course: An employee of a construction company which owns a mobile crane and you wish to become the operator Someone with no lifting operations experience who is searching for a type of career which has few similarities to any other. This course will give you the foundation knowledge required to do so. Course options (duration includes the CPCS Technical Test): 10 Day Foundation course: suitable for those with no experience in the use of lifting equipment 6 Day Experienced Worker course: suitable for those with experience in the use of other crane types

A varied range of companies may own one, or several of these types of cranes. They may also be hired-in for a long or short-term period, often on a "self-operated" contract. Compact cranes should only be operated by personnel who are trained & competent to do so. By gaining this qualification, you may increase your employment prospects within such a company and introduce yourself to a new type of work altogether - lifting operations. There are two options of sub-category for the compact crane course: A66 A - Compact crane - Static on outriggers A66 D - Compact crane - Pick and carry 5 Day foundation course (including the CPCS technical test) Suitable for those with little, or no, lifting operations, crane or machine operating experience. 3 Day course (including the CPCS technical test) Suitable for those experienced in operating other types of cranes e.g. mobile cranes, cranes and lifting operations in general.

It is a legal requirement under The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) 1998 that every lifting operation is carried out in a safe manner. This includes use of a responsible person to guide the crane using suitable means of communication, and to securely attach the load to the crane. We have now developed a 'Foundation Plus' course which is five days in duration. This will give candidates more practical training time to give greater preparation for the CPCS Practical Test, and to enhance post-course knowledge and skills. With effect from January 19th 2015 this category has been amended to add endorsements against a range of lifting equipment types to cover the increased use of slingers for a wider variety of lifting operations. The endorsements are: A – All Types – all duties B – All Types – static duties C – Knuckle boom static only D – Excavator only E – Lift truck only
