Ben filled me with confidence from the start of the course. Elaborating on all parts for the pre-start checks. Ben was very quick to correct our mishaps and show us the correct method, giving us both tips on better maneuvers for the excavator, even scaring he hell out of me when he made me travel up and over a spoil heap, but reassured me every step of the way.

I would highly recommend Ben and I hope I have Ben for future training. Thanks Again

I would like to thank Ben Walker for training me on this course. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better, he took his time explaining everything and I was able to take everything in quickly.

He built my confidence up from day 1. I was warried about going up the piles, but he went through everything in detail to ensure everything was ok and talked us through everything step by step.

Would highly recommend
