NPORS training and testing for safe telescopic handler operation in construction, lifting and site materials handling environments.
Accreditation: NPORS
Delivery: Practical + Theory
Novice & Experienced routes

Overview
The NPORS N010 Telescopic Handler course is designed to prepare operators for the safe, controlled and responsible use of telescopic handlers on construction sites and related working environments. Training focuses on developing operator understanding of machine controls, stability, load handling, travelling, lifting duties and general site awareness, helping delegates operate confidently and safely in line with recognised industry standards.
Because telescopic handlers are used for a wide range of lifting and materials handling activities, the course places strong emphasis on planning, machine limitations, pre-use checks and safe coordination with the surrounding work area. Delivery is arranged by enquiry so that delegate experience level, required route and any site-specific considerations can be reviewed before training takes place.
