On-site training in Logan
If you have a few people who need training, we can run it at your Logan workplace instead of theirs coming to us. That is 25 km each way, about 35–40 minutes in the car, per person, per day - time your team spends off the tools rather than on them.
Logan sits in our Logan & Scenic Rimservice area, which we cover for workplace delivery as standard.
One condition: your workplace needs a suitable forklift available for the training and assessment.
