Quad Bike Training

Quad Bike Training for ATV riders is offered by many training providers, with many certification schemes, including LANTRA, the NPTC (City and Guilds) and a whole host of smaller providers of recreational rider training including BORDA and EASI.

As far as professional operators are concerned, companies should only be looking at fully compliant Health and Safety Executive recommended courses. LANTRA and the NPTC are the only HSE recognised ATV qualifications as far as we know. There was a widely held view through the industry that the LANTRA certification (which previously needed renewing after 5 years) was more trouble than the old NPTC qualification which was externally assessed and was widely believed to last "forever".

However, with recent changes to legislation, and in order to comply with the PUWER recommendations for training, there is now recognition of a universal requirement for riders to be re-trained when their equipment (and it's operation) changes, or when legislation changes. In response to this, LANTRA have removed their 5 year limit on the duration of the certification, and the NPTC are recommending refresher training when necessary under the legislation.

The only real difference between the two is now the way that they are assessed and awarded. The NPTC certification is post-training, and is done by an external assessor, wheras the LANTRA course is an Integrated Training and Assessment course (ITA).

The advantage of the LANTRA course is that the certification assessment happens during the course, without the need for further time to be taken off work. This also means that the courses will tend to have a significantly lower cost to employers.

So if you are looking for ATV training for your quad bike riders, look no further than LANTRA ATV Training Provider - Beyond Driving.

Off Road Training for 4x4 and Quad Bikes

Off Road Training

Off Road Training for 4x4 drivers, Quad Bike riders and ATV operators is rapidly becoming essential for most companies. With many local and government organisations and authorities requiring riders and drivers to be certifified, there is no better time to ensure your staff have the relevant qualifications.

Our fully compliant LANTRA Off Road Training courses will ensure that your staff have access to all of the sites you wish to work on. LANTRA and NPTC are the HSE recommended qualifications for operators and will ensure that there are no barriers to where you can work.

Unlike many training providers, all of our 4x4 training is carried out by fully qualified Driving Standards Agency Approved Driving Instructors and LANTRA Approved Trainers. This ensures that your training is carried out both legally and to extremely high standards. For more information please have a look at our 4x4 Trainers Qualifications.

Our Quad Bike Training courses can be carried out on any suitable site, using your own machines in order to comply with all of the Health and Safety at Work regulations, specifically the PUWER training requirements. ATV training for sit-in vehicles such as argocats, polaris and mule vehicles can also be provided in both conventionally steered and skid steered wheeled and tracked ATVs.

Due to the experience and qualifications of our trainers, we will also provide on-road training for your 4x4 drivers, designed to reduce the impact of incidents and minimise your exposure to prosecution under some of the recent legislation surrounding driving for work. Unfortunately the majority of collisions and incidents with 4x4 vehicles occur on-road, so this should be considered an essential part of your 4x4 driver training.
