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.

All delivered and tested at our own centre — prices shown are course prices, not broker mark-ups
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.
