We offer 2 different courses, for either novices or more experienced operators. The tractor is an essential piece of machinery for so many businesses and operating it safely and efficiently is crucial.
Our novice courses can also be tailored for young persons over 13 years of age who wish to operate tractors on private land, perfect for any budding young farmers ready to start helping on the family farm.
Whether you're an experienced hand, or just starting out, our instructor will steer you through the entire tractor-driving process, including the theory behind tractor driving, with sessions on key health and safety issues. You will also receive a comprehensive course book containing vital information that you can then refer to after the course.
You will also receive plenty of hands-on experience behind the wheel, with basic operations and manoeuvring covered, as well as using attachments, trailers and the power take-off (PTO) shaft. Course sessions:

Controls and pre-start checks

You will receive a certificate of training once you have successfully completed the course.
