NPORS Plant & Machinery Training
Accredited plant training, testing and assessments across the full range of construction machinery categories — for individual operators and companies, at our Aldermaston training centre or on-site.
Experienced operator, or starting from scratch?
MAC covers plant and machinery training end to end. If you've already operated a machine and simply need your competency formally assessed, our Experienced Operator Testing route gets you your NPORS card quickly. If you're new to a machine or the industry, our Novice Training route builds you up from the ground.
Talk to MAC before you book.
Every operator is different. Call 07440 441940 and we'll ask about your current experience, the machine you need, and what the qualification is for — then point you to the right course.
Training on the machines you'll actually operate
No classroom simulators — every course runs on real plant, on real ground, whether that's at our Aldermaston centre or on your own site.
