Training & Auditing.

Fancy visiting our HOUSE for some Regulatory training?

Scheduled Training

At Backhouse Jones we understand the demands of running a business and the time available for training. But can you afford to be without it – and why take the risk?

To make things easier, we are hosting a number of HGV and PCV half-day intensive training sessions throughout 2013:-

The sessions are ideal for Operators, Directors, Transport and Operation Managers and all other senior staff looking for refresher training. Topics will include a focus on Operator’s Licence compliance, undertakings, best practice and forthcoming legislation.

Cost: £95 per delegate (includes refreshment and buffet lunch)

Bespoke Training

We regularly deliver bespoke training to companies in-house. Courses are available in either manageable bite sized chunks (short session training) or intensive half or full day training events. Below is a list of training sessions frequently delivered. The training programme provides baseline content which is then tailor-made to suit your organisations individual needs and circumstances. It is not just a question of what the content is but how it is created and delivered and our development process balances the need for quality and efficiency with requirement and cost.

Auditing

When contemplating compliance it is worth remembering that it is not just complacent, careless and unscrupulous operators that find themselves on the wrong side of the law. Even diligent, responsible and well-managed businesses can occasionally trip up and fall into a regulatory pitfall, require legal advice to deal with the pending situation. Our advice: don’t leave it to chance.

For just £750 + VAT, Backhouse Jones will carry out a compliance audit – appropriately named the anti-VOSArant – for any operator in the UK. If your operation depends on a clean O-licence for the effective running of your business, it makes commercial sense to ensure you are fully compliant.
