A Swanley 360 Excavator course proves that you have the skills and knowledge to operate n excavator competently.
Like various types of industrial vehicle, a learner must take this course to become a certified plant operator with a red Trained Operator Card, approving them for the relevant work.
A 360 Excavator operation training course covers various elements of excavating duties, such as:
Some more specific kinds of course material include:
Pre-use checks and running checks, as well as shut down checks. These are focused on being able to shut down and start up the vehicle safely, and are a huge part of any excavator training course in Swanley.
For example, pre-use checks are meant to catch issues before the vehicle is activated. Understanding shut down and pre-use checks is vital for using the vehicle correctly.
Being able to operate a vehicle on both smooth and undulating ground is vital, especially when digging vertical trench spaces that might interfere with smooth movement.
The wheeled or tracked undercarriage of these 360 excavator units works well on both rough and level surfaces, but being able to handle the vehicle off level surfaces is a major part of proving your competence with the machine.
A 360 excavator in Swanley has a vast number of applications. Operators need to understand various types of operation, such as basic construction, how to place materials, how to manage square excavation, and even how to level ground if needed.
This also covers things like operating in confined spaces, or around underground and overhead services.
Safety training concerns factors like securing procedures, rotating platform safety, basic construction spatial awareness, working in confined spaces around other employees, and avoiding damage to underground and overhead services.
The Swanley course covers basic securing procedures and other steps involved in safe operation, which hare important for proving competence. Not understanding securing procedures or confined spaces operation can put others in danger, or even cause direct harm to fellow employees.
If you want to operate a 360 excavator, then you will need the correct training for the role. Our in-class and practical training efforts allow each learner to get a fair chance at achieving their goals, all without putting them under unnecessary pressure.
We offer support and clear teaching throughout the entire course, aiming to help our learners succeed at their training in whatever ways we can.
We have earned accreditations and training approval for our 360 excavator courses (among other courses) from major groups, each of which offer their own differing types of training in Swanley.
• NPORS (National Plant Operators Registration Scheme)
• EITO (European Independent Training Organisation)
• CPCS (Construction Plant Competence Scheme)
We can provide CPCS 360 excavator training, and are approved as part of the CPCS card scheme.
As trainers, we are approved to offer NPQRS 360 excavator training to any and all learners that qualify.
We are also able to provide EITO 360 excavator training, using the same training course materials as other EITO training providers.
The cost of 360 excavator training (or any similar training course) can vary quite heavily based on a range of factors. On average, courses are around £500 to £700 overall.
However, this can be altered by things like practical training requirements, the training period (which can be shortened if you are taking a refresher course), and various other in-course and out-of-course factors.
We try to ensure that our course options are affordable. There are also funding sources available for learners who want to take on a new course and need outside financial support, including potential government grants.
The requirements for 360 excavator training need to be met before you can take the Swanley course.
This requires some experience of plant operator responsibilities, and a driver’s license. Beyond this, the course also needs a decent understanding of written and spoken English, since the course itself relies on written and spoken English training materials/sessions.
Requirements may vary depending on the exact 360 excavator course. Talk to our team or look through our 360 excavator training course options before you commit to a training course.
A 360 excavator training course in Swanley will last between 1-5 days, depending on the operator’s experience and the required certification level they want to achieve.

Upon successful completion of the 360 excavator training in Swanley, you will gain a Red Trained Operator Card. This Red Trained Operator Card/CPCS Trained Operator Card certifies you for various types of relevant work.
This card would be needed to operate a 360 excavator, along with the other requirements for using a heavy construction machine.
Becoming a licensed 360 excavator operator requires completion of relevant training
Completing this theory and practical training can take around 1-5 days, depending on the situation.
The average cost of this training ranges from £500 to £700, although theory and practical training costs can vary quite heavily for a wide range of reasons.
Completing the relevant theory and practical training will earn you the card needed to operate a 360 excavator under CSCS.
All training is supposed to leave the learner certified in their chosen subject as long as they successfully complete the course and all relevant tests.
A 360 excavator driver earns roughly between £17,000 and £40,000 per year. This depends heavily on things like competence, qualifications, skills, and the amount of work you are carrying out each year.
A 360 excavator can be driven without a license on private land and access roads, including construction sites. Operation still requires full training and certification, as does using it anywhere outside of these spaces.
Different types of training offer their own specific certifications, so be sure that you understand the course and its certifications before you begin.
We can break down the course itself for each learner, making sure that they understand what the resulting certifications will be and how they apply to their future career. While all courses prove competency, there may be slightly different documents provided upon completion.
