Off-Road 4x4 Training Courses 2008 - 2009

Off-road training now plays an essential part in company driver training policy, ensuring that your 4x4 drivers are complying with current Health and Safety regulations and are working safely and efficiently. Modern 4x4 vehicles are designed to enable your drivers to access areas that would not normally be available to regular vehicles, enabling you to get personnel and equipment across the most formidable terrain. Our LANTRA 4x4 Training covers the following areas:

Health & Safety compliance under HSAW, PUWER and LOLER regulations
Safe techniques for crossing all types of terrain

Knowledge of traction aids available to 4x4 operators

Understanding of both the capabilities and limitations of off-road vehicles

Once trained drivers will be capable of covering terrain that may otherwise have stopped them in their tracks safely, while having the techniques and knowledge to ensure that vehicle damage is minimised and efficiency is increased. The course certification from LANTRA lasts for 5 years and fulfils the company duty to train operators on specialist vehicles. Re-certification courses are available. The economic benefits of training your 4x4 drivers include:

Increased efficiency – vehicles and drivers are able to work safely at their full potential

Reduced repair costs – knowledge of vehicle limitations reduces off-road damage

Reduced insurance – safe techniques will reduce collisions and claims

Reduced maintenance – an understanding of the vehicle increases mechanical sympathy

In order to provide these courses we are working with the UK’s most highly qualified trainers who are both DSA Approved Driving Instructors (to ensure the legality and professional standard of your training) and LANTRA Off-Road Trainers (guaranteeing expertise in the use of 4x4’s and relevant H&S regulation).
