Coming soon…. E-learning courses and how they benefit both businesses and delegates
For companies who value the safety of their workers, choosing the right Health and Safety training provider is a priority and not a decision to be made lightly.
At Key Performance Training , we work with Tactical Tuition to provide a variety of First Aid and Health and safety training courses that can be carried out in our Swindon warehouse or a location suitable for your organisation.
In this blog post we will go over some of the many reasons as to why we believe tactical tuition should be your H&S Training provider of choice.
Our trainers.
We believe that the most important part of any course and the extent of knowledge the delegates learn is mainly down to those teaching.
Tactical Tuition don’t teach ‘at you’ they teach ‘with you. They provide motivating training that redefines the standard.
This is proven through the constant 5-star reviews they receive through Trustpilot for their work which reflects their passion and enthusiasm.
2. Fully accredited
When you have a business , you must be certain that you are following the regulations put in place , including having a full First Aid Kit and at least 1 first aider for every 50 people employed.
Following the legal HSE guidelines , we will equip you with the skills and get you qualified. TT are Regulated by Ofqual , under their Regulated Quality Framework (RQF) , accredited by the FAA and FutureQuals – providing businesses with accountable , quality assured practical knowledge , backed up by real-world knowledge.Bespoke Courses
3. Bespoke Courses
Following on from our earlier point that we work ‘with you’ instead of ‘at you’, it is highly important to us that we meet your company needs.
This is why we offer bespoke courses where we work with you and tailor our regulated , quality assured courses to meet your specific needs.
We understand that many businesses can’t afford to take time off work to go to first aid training courses so we can be extremely flexible by doing weekend evening courses as well as travel to a location that best suits you within the South of England.

1. We help you to find work after completing a course.
Are you looking to find a job, a better job or a career?
Our aim is to provide delegates with a pathway to employment. By pathway, we don’t mean that we are providing the training and that’s all. We provide a guided pathway. One, where even after the delegates training course ends, we are there to guide them in the direction of employment.
Once completing a course, we will first give you the contact details of the job coaches and employment agencies we work with who will give you the coaching needed to find a job, a better job or a career.
You are then given the option to subscribe to our email newsletters where we send out forklift operator vacancies in Swindon and the surrounding areas. This means our previous delegates are often the first to hear about forklift driver job roles in their area.
With this process we have in place, as well as the increasing demand for operators, delegates are commonly finding work 1-2 weeks after completing a course with us.
2. Trainers with over 20 years of experience.
With any type of training, teaching or coaching the trainer, teacher or coach is the determiner for not only your success but also your experience and enjoyment. Wouldn’t you agree?
At Key Performance Training we believe that our experienced trainers are what takes our forklift training centre from great to EXCELLENT. Many of our previous delegates and reviews state that our trainers made their experience on a course with multiple reviews stating ‘the best trainer I’ve ever had’.
David and Calum both have over 20 years of experience in forklift operating and training. Therefore, they know first hand the potential dangers of operating and the best ways to avoid these risks. Both, share the same goal of minimising these risks by providing training that prioritises safety.
As we believe on any course that the determiner of success is the trainer, we offer FREE taster sessions for potential delegates to come along to the warehouse and meet our trainers. From there, you will hopefully share the same view as us on how friendly, calming and knowledgeable both David and Calum are. Especially for those apprehensive novice drivers, meeting the team in person before a course can make all the difference and calm your nerves before course week!
3. Our Reviews- They speak for themselves!
“Would definitely recommend” ‘Credit for my achievements go to him.’This delegate has never been out of work since completing a course with us!
Are you interested in completing a forklift course to expand your employment oppourtunities?
Are your warehouse looking to up skill or cross-train staff to operate forklifts?
After reading this blog post we hope you choose us as your forklift training centre! To get in contact about the courses we offer or for general enquires contact;
We’ve been keeping busy at the Key Performance Training warehouse. With both of our trainers (David and Calum) being able to teach at the same time in our double arena, more and more delegates are gaining forklift qualifications and unlocking their pathway to employment!
This is our cheerful monthly blog post where we recognise and congratulate some of the delegates who are now fully qualified, excellent operators! So lets take a look back at some of the fantastic delegates who have completed a course and gained their license with us throughout the month of September…
Connor and Bill
A big congratulations to Connor (pictured) and friend Bill who both passed their counterbalance and reach truck novice courses by completing a three day CB novice and then going onto complete a two day reach truck conversion.
Both boys were 19 years old and unsure on their next step towards a career. They came along for a taster session and quickly decided that forklift operating would be a good option and so booked in for a course.
When Connor was asked if he would recommend Key Performance Training, he answered; “Definitely, the instructors and facilities are all good and they give you the names of the agencies so it’s easy to find a job afterwards”.
Paul
Paul came to us as an experienced operator looking to refresh and expand on his skills. He already had experience as a counterbalance operator but needed to renew his license and so completed a Counterbalance refresher and Reach conversion course.
David picked up quickly that Paul was a competent driver who just needed a reminder on the latest legislations and safety procedures that have been updated since he last completed a course.
With no surprise to David, Paul passed with flying colours and is now a fully qualified operator of both trucks!
Artur
Congratulations to Artur who completed and passed his Reach truck conversion course.
The RTITB Counterbalance Lift Truck conversion course is aimed at currently certified lift truck operators wishing to convert their existing lift truck driving qualification and skills to include a counterbalance lift truck.
From completing the course, Artur gained a suitable and sufficient understanding of current relevant legislation, learnt new skills and the best practice of counterbalance lift trucks up to 5000kg.
Terry
Well done to Terry who passed his Counterbalance Novice course. As a novice operator, Terry had no prior experience of lift truck operation but wished to achieve a nationally recognised qualification in the safe and correct use of counterbalance lift trucks.
He was a pleasure to train and took everything on board excellently with a real eagerness to learn.
Now, Terry will have many more opportunities to get back into employment, especially as the counterbalance lift truck is one of the most common lift trucks in use today and are the workhorse of most materials handling operations.
Mike
Mike already had experience operating a reach truck but also wanted to expand his career options and get a license in safe operation of a counterbalance truck. Therefore, he completed a counterbalance conversion course.
Also, Mike recognised that he needed to refresh his Reach license as to follow health and safety legislations, licenses have to be refreshed every three years. He also completed his Reach truck refresher with us in the same week.
We would like to congratulate Mike, not only on his successful completion of the course but also for following the law and sticking with the health and safety legislations to get his license refreshed.
Why train with Key Performance Training?
We can offer RTITB accredited operator training and instruction from fully qualified and experienced instructors and examiners who are able to carry out training to the legal requirements.
This can help the likelihood of accidents and improve safety of operators and pedestrians in the workplace.
All our RTITB courses are held in our Swindon warehouse. If , however you are looking for an onsite course, we can cater to this too.
We’ve been keeping busy at the Key Performance Training warehouse. With COVID restrictions easing, we have been able to work at double occupancy; which means twice as many delegates can gain their license and unlock their pathway to employment! David and Calum worked hard on updating the warehouse so that we could have two sections for separate courses and the two of them have been busy ever since.
As we have entered a new month and summer is coming to an end, let’s take a look back at some of the successful delegates who have completed a course and gained their license with us throughout the month of August.
Amar Goes
Amar already had a Counterbalance truck license but wanted to expand his employment opportunities even further. He booked in and completed our Reach truck conversion course with an excellent pass rate.
He was also one of our first ex-Honda associates who completed a course with us since the closure of the Swindon Honda site. Our main aim as a business is to help delegates find a pathway to employment which is why we are offering discounts to all ex-Honda employees in a hope to get them back into employment as soon as possible.
Jackson and Francis:
Congratulations to Jackson and Francis who both completed and passed their Counterbalance truck refresher courses. Not only is it great that they did well and was successful on the course but it’s great to see delegates following the law and making sure to refresh their license every 3 years.
If you gained a forklift license over 3 years ago, then this is your sign that it needs to be refreshed if you are still operating or using forklift trucks.
For more about hazards that could occur if you do not refresh your license: https://keyperformancetraining.co.uk/these-beasts-are-of-great-assistance-and-dangerous/
Jack:
Jack completed his Reach and Counterbalance truck courses with us. For a delegate who wants to learn how to operate both trucks we put them onto a reach novice course for 3 days and then a conversion Counterbalance course for the last two days.
Although Jack is one of the youngest delegates we have trained (age 16), he absolutely smashed the course with an amazing pass score on both the theory and practical.

Andre Gooden:
Andre was very successful in his Counterbalance novice course and went from someone who had never operated a forklift before to a confident driver in only a few days!
Often, delegates who come in for a novice course are very apprehensive and nervous that they may not succeed. If you are one of those people who is letting nerves put you off starting your career as a FLT driver, we can assure you that our trainers are qualified and experienced in working with delegates at all levels. With both our trainers having over 10 years in the industry, the chances are you won’t be the worst they’ve seen!
What are you waiting for? Book in for one of our forklift truck courses and perhaps you could be featured on next months blog!
