Owned-fleet CPCS training and testing within easy reach of the High Peak and Derbyshire Dales
If you’re looking for CPCS training in Derbyshire, our centre at Endon, Stoke-on-Trent is often the closest place you can actually train and test on one site — particularly for Buxton, the High Peak and the Dales, where local options are scarce.
Since 2003 we’ve trained plant operators on our own fleet: 360 excavators, telehandlers, dumpers, rollers, forklifts and MEWPs, with a maximum of two candidates per machine and CPCS testing carried out at the centre.
Course prices shown upfront — the price you see is the course price, not a broker mark-up.
Not sure which course you need? See our excavator, telehandler, dumper, scissor lift and forklift training pages, or browse all courses and prices.
A real training centre — not a listings site or a broker reselling courses
Excavators, telehandlers, dumpers and forklifts we maintain ourselves — never hired in.
Genuine seat time. Many courses run 1:1, so you are ready for the CPCS test.
In-house training, the CITB HS&E test and CPCS theory + practical testing.
A 5.0 Google rating from 400+ operators and over 1,000 candidates trained a year.
All delivered and tested at our own centre — prices shown are course prices, not broker mark-ups
Everything Derbyshire candidates ask before booking
You need a valid CITB Health, Safety & Environment test (passed within the last two years) before taking CPCS technical tests. We can arrange it as part of your booking, so you complete everything in one place.
Yes — we train over 1,000 candidates a year and regularly run dedicated courses for contractors. Because we own the machines, we can schedule around your project dates. Call 01782 503 500 for group rates.
Many "local" listings are brokers who resell courses at marked-up prices on hired machines. We are the actual training centre: our own fleet, our own CPCS testers on site, a maximum of two candidates per machine, and a 5-star Google rating from 210+ operators.
