The instructors are very proficient and experienced so always able to give feedback on our processes and equipment so we can continuously improve our standards also.

What Our Clients Say

Gregg Falconer, Impact Solutions, C/B Refresher Course in DGC Centre, 6th November

We have used your services for the past four years and have enjoyed an excellent working relationship and have only had glowing reports from our employees regarding the training and certification they received. Thanks for the level of service you have been able to provide; we look forward to a continuing professional relationship.

At Daiwa Sports we are very aware of how important health and safety is and that is why when we were looking for a forklift training company we chose DGC Training Services. I have always found them to be a very professional company which has a high standard of trainers and these are the reasons we will continue to use them time after time.

Thanks for the level of service you have been able to provide; we look forward to a continuing professional relationship

Thank you for your assistance in getting 30 of my workforce trained in the various stages of Forklift driving. Your service and quality of training was excellent and has been great help in making sure that we can now move materials/transfer goods around around our site in a safer and more efficient manner. Can I also commend you on our back-up care where the relevant paperwork and certificates were issued to me and forwarded to the successful operators promptly.

“Very Thankful for the help of Grant – Great Instructor”.
