Rigid Wheeled Dump Truck training at ACOP!

ACOP have recently taken delivery of a Komatsu HD465 (55 tonne) rigid dump truck for training at our CPCS test centre in South Wales! We really hope that this helps serve both construction and quarrying industries within the UK.

Historically, it has proven challenging for operators outside the quarrying industry to train on Rigid Dump Trucks, especially as the CPCS A57C (All Sizes) category requires the Rigid Dump Truck to have a payload in excess of 50 tonnes. As you can appreciate there are many constraints on arranging access to such large items of plant machinery.

However, after months of planning and years of saving, we are proud to be the first CPCS test centre in the UK to have a Rigid Dump Truck dedicated for training and testing.

We will be offering short duration refresher training, experienced operator testing as well as intensive novice training at our South Wales training centre.

Please give us a call or drop us an email if you’d like to know more.

    I’m interested in training 777 ADT DUMPER TRUCK. How much is and duration of the course.

  20. Siôn Jones

    Hi Reuben,

    We offer training on both Rigid (777) and Articulated (ADT) Dump Trucks, under both CPCS and NPORS accreditation.

    I’ve sent you an email with costs and durations.

    Thanks again,

    Team ACOP

    Farhan,

    It’s the CITB Health Safety and Environment (HS&E) test for ‘operatives’ that you require. There’s an app you can download for £6.99 to prepare for the test.

    I’ve also sent you an email with costs for the CPCS Rigid and Articulated Dump Truck tests.

    Thanks again,

    Team ACOP

  25. Cedric Masomeng

    Good evening, wanna learn to drive the rigid dump trucks.

  26. Siôn Jones

    Hi Mark,

    I’m afraid we have recently sold our rigid dumptruck. Any tests now will need to be done on site, please get in touch if you are able to arrange this.

    Thanks,

    Team ACOP

  27. Siôn Jones

    Hi Lukas

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    We tend to find that CPCS accreditation is the most popular.

    Prior to attending any CPCS courses, you will need to pass the CITB Health Safety & Environment test for Operatives (unless you have already passed it within the last 2 years).

    Our CPCS A56B Articulated Dumptruck course is 4 days in duration with a maximum of 2 candidates per course. Availability can be sought by contacting the office or looking at our courses calendar.

    I’m afraid we have recently sold our rigid dumptruck. Any tests now will need to be done on site, please get in touch if you are able to arrange this.

    Thanks,

    Team ACOP

    Hello.
    I’m interested in training 777 ADT DUMPER TRUCK. How much is it and what is the duration of the course.

    I have no experience in dumper trucks but hold every category driving license if that helps ‍♂️

  29. Stephen Cameron

    Really good information, sorry to see you no longer offer this on your site but do on the customers site. You still do forward tipping dumper training ?. Is the training NPORS accredited?, thanks

  30. Siôn Jones

    Stephen,

    Thanks for your comment.

    Yes, we offer both NPORS and CPCS training on Forward Tipping Dumpers from our training centre in south west Wales. We also offer tracked rigid dump trucks and wheeled articulated dump trucks.

    Thanks again,

    Sion
