Sit In ATV Training Course
Our LANTRA assured ATV training course sets the industry standard for certificating professional drivers. We train sit-in and side by side utility terrain vehicles (UTV) such as the Polaris Ranger, Kawasaki Mule, John Deere Gator and the Kubota RTV among others. We also provide a specific Quad Bike Training course.
This LANTRA approved course – designed around HSE guidance – has been recognised as being of the highest quality by local and national government, the construction and engineering industries, agriculture, estate management, and military. We also regularly provide this off road course to the emergency services. We understand that some organisations require specific training courses and assessments to be undertaken. This is why we provide Lantra Awards Sit-In ATV training, and can tailor courses in preparation for City and Guilds (NPTC) assessments.
We have trained many ATV operators across many locations across the UK. We’ve trained in agricultural situations; with trailers and towed equipment such as flails and harvesters; Industrial ATV operators, on a variety of sites from landfill sites to shopping centres; forestry contractors and local parks and gardens staff. We have more recently worked with several organisations who have required training for ATVs and quad bikes with towed gritters and snowploughs. Discover why it is essential that you train your staff in proper use of ATVs in farming and forestry.
