Fleet Training Testimonials

Holiday Cottages Group

We were introduced to Nick by the Energy Saving Trust, as a company we have a desire to be as ‘green’ as possible.

Therefore we arranged for Nick to provide our Head Office based employees with efficient driving training, not only did Nick teach us about how to save fuel and be as environmentally friendly as possible he also gave the team tips on how to ensure that they were safe and compliant with all road laws.

After the success of this training when I needed a one session for a driver I did not hesitate to contact Nick who provided dedicated time to the individual and addressed the concerns we had with a comprehensive training plan and outcome report.

Re: Safe and Fuel Efficient Driver training

Following Health and Safety risk assessments, benchmarking with other organisations and consultation with our staff, it was agreed that all our operational staff who drive a BCH vehicle would be required to complete the above course successfully.

I confirm that Nick Hayward carried out all the training for approximately 45 trade operatives in a very professional manner.

Mr Hayward was consistent in his approach and completed the course in a timely manner.

The feedback from our staff has been extremely positive and I would highly recommend Mr Hayward’s services to any other organisation considering a similar scheme.

Nick runs training courses for us based around the Safed guidelines and has been ongoing since 2006.

The training centers around safe driving and obtaining fuel efficiencies through vehicle road positioning speed awareness, gear selection, and road awareness. In total 50 drivers were trained.

Positive feedback was received from both employees and operations management in both the how the training was conducted and the content.

The training has been beneficial to both the staff and company were we have seen a reduction in the fuel usage across all vehicles.

Whilst we only operate a small fleet of vehicles a decision was taken to implement a programme of driver training. As there is a focus on both safety and fuel efficiency, the Safed course was considered to be the most appropriate type of training for our particular needs.

Mr Nick Hayward has recently completed a programme of training for all of our company vehicle drivers and this has been well received by all concerned. The potential for fuel savings has been clearly established and all of the driver now have a good understanding of the techniques.

Throughout the programme we have been kept well informed of progress and any issues arising, in addition to receiving a detailed summary of performance.
