Why Learn?

When used correctly, All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs), are very versatile vehicles with a wide variety of uses, both for business and recreational operators. A range of attachments, including trailers, sprayers and spreaders, make them even more flexible and effective business tools.

Even the most experienced ATV drivers can find themselves in hazardous and potentially dangerous situations. Serious accidents can and do occur without proper training. Training is a legal requirement. The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER) require employers to provide adequate training and to ensure that ATVs are used only by employees who have received appropriate ATV training covering their safe use, including towed equipment and attachments.

Awarding Bodies

Our quad bike ATV training courses are accredited by nationally recognised awarding bodies Lantra Awards and NPORS and are designed specifically to assist employers in complying with their health & safety requirements.
