Our Specialist Training

Providing you with the Knowledge to Improve Safety Standards
Our aim is to provide a first class training service that meets the needs of all of our clients; from individuals to principal contractors.
Emerson Training Services is an independent training provider based in East London. We specialise in providing training for safer lifting operations and associated work.
Why Choose Emerson to be your Training Service Provider?
Emerson Crane Hire has been providing specialist lifting operations services to the construction industry and other sectors for over 20 years. Our trainers draw from the knowledge and experience they have built-up over many years of working with Emerson and within the industry to help you gain the qualifications you require.
We have all the necessary facilities and equipment for our on-centre courses, and some courses may be carried out at your premises for your convenience.
Creating Opportunities for Workers with a Non-English Mother Tongue
To fill the skills shortage within the construction industry many companies employ skilled migrants that may only have a basic knowledge of the English language. We can provide CPCS training and testing for a range of different languages to help you get your workforce up to speed with UK standards and get them qualified.

Get Ready for the Increase in Construction Work After the Games
We understand how difficult things have been over the last few years… particularly now that the Olympic Games construction work has ceased and London construction activity has been restricted for the Games.
After the Games there will be work to catch up on and dismantling and rebuilding of much of the Olympics Games facilities.
We will be offering places on many of our courses at a reduced price during August to help you and your staff increase your skill level ready for the increased construction activity.
Book now or get in touch with us to find out what quality courses we can provide for you at unbeatable prices. We have also launched a stand alone training website.

Testimonials
Appointed Person Course
“Just wanted to say that I enjoyed completing the course. For a manager working in construction, I found the course very informative and well presented. The facilities were very good and the lunch was always very nice.
You always found time to ensure that the attendees questions were answered in a way that they understood. Thanks again with your help in getting me through it all.”
“I attended an Appointed Person training course at Emerson Crane Hire under the tutorage of Kevin Bennison who brought a practical approach to the teaching of the theory which kept the course interesting and helped everyone to understand the concepts.
I thoroughly enjoyed the course and am now actively using the skills which I learnt in my work.”
“You made the course come alive with both your theoretical and practical knowledge. You were very patient and a very good instructor who made it fun as well as interesting.
I will be recommending you to my company and those in the Gas and Petrochemical Industries. Many thanks again.”
“An enjoyable course, which covers the fundamental principles of cranes, the calculations and drawings required in order to use them effectively.
The additional day is very beneficial as it allows for the course content to be at a pace that allows for any problems in understanding to be clarified by the instructor without it effecting the remaining course content.”
Crane Supervisor Course
“Once again thanks a million for the superb course.
I didn’t realise how much I didn’t know until Monday. A great course one that I shall be thoroughly recommending to every one at Higgins ”
“Just a quick thank you for training the three lads last week they all say how good the course was and how well it was presented by your good self.
As health and safety manager for Becro Engineering I would not hesitate in recommending you and Emerson’s for any future training.”
