(Hiab) Lorry Mounted Crane Training
Ace Trainers provides ITSSAR accredited lift truck training at company premises anywhere in the country. Because we are ITSSAE accredited this means our training has been inspected and approved to meet the conditions set out by the Health and Safety accredited body in respect of operator training. Our lift arm instructors have also be trained and tested by the ITSSAR to ensure they have the required knowledge and ability to teach correct lift truck operating practices to new and existing drivers. All the courses follow a strict timetable and course structure to ensure all elements are covered and the trainees have all the skills required at each level. This includes the basics such as machine controls through to positioning loads at maximum extension.
Our Lorry Loader training is designed to ensure that your staff operate this expensive equipment efficiently and safely. The requirement for training is clearly part of Health & Safety legislation and besides that makes common sense – how much would an accident cost you ?

As an accredited training organisation, we can offer a certification either at a non-accredited level (known as in house) training which allows the delegates to use this training for your company only, or we can also offer a national photo ID certificate at a cost of £20.00 per person. This then enables the trainee to operate (with permission) anywhere in the UK. Their names and details are kept on a national database. The certificate is valid throughout the UK and will be recognised by both employment agencies and perspective employers.
When conducting training at customers’ premises we will require the following:
- An open area either indoors or outdoors
- Any attachments
- Loler98 Certification
- A room in which to carry out the theory training.
