Atlas Winch and Hoist Services (Southern) Ltd

Atlas Winch & Hoist Services Ltd. have had a productive few months developing both the business and personnel. Alongside attaining ISO9001 in June, we have been busy expanding our LEEA qualifications and other training. Through May, June and July we had four personnel on different LEEA training courses.

Firstly in May Calum Craig successfully passed his Part 1 entrance certificate, a great achievement given that Calum is still relatively new to the lifting industry. 

Then in Mid-June Denis Lavery achieved a Pass with Distinction in the Lifting Machines Manual Diploma, not a surprise that Denis managed a pass with distinction given he was jointly awarded the Gordon Loveridge Memorial Prize by LEEA some years ago. Come July it was the turn of Thomas Houston and Darren Gray to undertake more training. Thomas was delighted to pass the Lifting Equipment General Diploma and Darren was even more delighted when he passed Lifting Machines Powered Diploma with Distinction.

It is not just in Biggar that the training development is taking place, at Atlas Southern Paul Skingle recently completed a Management course, which will assist him in developing his role as Works Supervisor. All LEEA qualifications are being enhanced at Southern also, with the courses being booked for the autumn.

Our policy of continued training and personal development is something we are very proud of and is something we will continue to promote.Well done to all on the recent achievements and good luck to all those who have more training in the near future.
