As plant machinery evolves and jobsite demands change, even the most experienced operators can benefit from keeping their skills up to date. That’s where refresher training from Skill-Fit plays a crucial role — not just in ticking compliance boxes, but in improving safety, confidence, and performance across the board.


Whether you’re managing a large team or working solo, regular refresher sessions are a smart investment. They ensure your workforce is fully aligned with the latest health and safety standards, aware of best practices, and operating equipment efficiently and correctly — reducing downtime and improving site output.


At Skill-Fit, we provide targeted refresher courses for a wide range of machinery and certifications, including CPCS and NPORS. Delivered either at your location or from our Doncaster based training facility, our sessions are tailored to individual experience levels and site-specific requirements.



Did You Know?


Under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER), employers have a legal duty to ensure workers are adequately trained — including refresher training when needed.


What Are the Key Benefits of Refresher Training?


Improved Safety – Reduced risk of accidents due to lapses in best practice

Increased Confidence – Boost operator morale and productivity

Regulatory Compliance – Stay on the right side of HSE and PUWER regulations

Minimised Downtime – Catch bad habits before they cause costly mistakes

Equipment Longevity – Proper use reduces wear and tear

Insurance Compatibility – Many insurers require up-to-date training records

Customisable Content – Focus on the equipment and procedures most relevant to you

Flexible Delivery – On-site or off-site, scheduled around your needs


Whether it’s been 6 months or 6 years since your last assessment, Skill-Fit’s refresher training helps you maintain high standards and avoid costly mistakes. Get in touch today to find out more about bespoke training for your team or site.
