ATS Group Plant & Machinery training courses

ATS Group offer training in the operation of a large range of industrial vehicles, including dump trucks, excavators, elevated working platforms, telehandlers and most types of cranes. Our training can be run on-site at your location, for your flexibility and convenience, and with the advantage of providing training within your working environment. We are based in London and Reading, Berkshire and cover the surrounding areas of the south coast including Southampton, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth, Basingstoke, Salisbury, Bournemouth and Poole. We maintain excellent pass rates with a friendly and professional approach.

Most of our work comes via personal recommendation. All of our courses are delivered by NPORS or CPCS qualified instructors, with years of practical machinery experience, and meet The Health and Safety Commission’s approved code of practice for both instructors and operators.
