Industrial estates, engineering sites and rural workplaces
Gloucestershire has a varied mix of engineering, aerospace, warehousing, construction, agriculture and food-sector businesses. A large industrial site around Gloucester or Tewkesbury may have substantial vehicle movements, while workplaces near Stroud, Cirencester or the Forest of Dean can present different access, space or ground conditions.
Because of that variation, the course is planned around the customer’s own machine and work area. We need to know which attachments are fitted, how much practical space is available and whether the equipment can be kept free from production for the full training period.
Training categories available
| Training need | Course |

| Vehicle-mounted loader crane operator | ALLMI Lorry Loader Operator |
| Attaching, controlling or directing loads | ALLMI Slinger / Signaller |

Courses can include ALLMI Lorry Loader and Slinger/Signaller training along with counterbalance and reach trucks, VNA equipment, pallet trucks, order pickers, telescopic handlers, overhead cranes, scissor lifts and other suitable MHE categories.
Candidate experience determines the correct route. Novice operators, experienced users and candidates due refresher training should be identified before the booking is confirmed so the course can be structured correctly.
Gloucestershire site planning
At engineering and manufacturing sites, machine availability may be the main issue. At rural or agricultural locations, access and practical space can matter more. If the training area is outdoors, has an uneven surface or is reached through a separate entrance, describe this when making the enquiry.
Where the site remains operational, a controlled training zone is required so candidates are not practising in the path of normal yard traffic. For ALLMI courses, the vehicle, lifting area, suitable loads and required accessories need to be available.

Before training starts
- Reserve the correct machine and attachments for the course.
- Identify a practical area that suits the equipment and can be kept controlled.
- Check the machine is serviceable before the training date.
- Prepare representative loads or lifting accessories where needed.
- Send candidate experience levels and any relevant previous training information.
- Provide gate, visitor, parking or induction details for the site.
