Advanced Winch Operator Training
Course
Our RoSPA assured 2 day Advanced Winch Operator training course, is aimed at operators who may be expected to manage winching operations, or run complex and multi-line pulls themselves.
Courses typically run using the equipment that the candidates will be expected to use, and can include hand winches (tirfor or capstan types), vehicle mounted winches (hydraulic, PTO or electric, including fast spool types), or stand alone winches (static or trailer mounted).
All of Beyond Driving’s courses are designed to be responsive to the requirements of the clients. Plus, our highly experienced winch instructors will tailor the delivery of the training to the needs of the candidates.
