A new education programme has been launched to support equipment owners, operators and users to improve eco-efficiency and minimise engine run time on construction sites.
This is not a paywall. Registration allows us to enhance your experience across Construction Management and ensure we deliver you quality editorial content.
Registering also means you can manage your own CPDs, comments, newsletter sign-ups and privacy settings.
The framework defines the parameters for consistent delivery, identifying and providing guidance on areas including core and optional learning outcomes, content, teaching methods, assessment strategies, and course durations.
It also tailors course content for various roles, including plant operators, supervisors, plant and site managers, planners, plant procurers, and maintenance personnel.
Following completion of a course based on the framework, delegates should have a clear understanding of how to reduce machine-based carbon emissions. This will enable them to recognise and apply learned reduction techniques, operational processes and emerging machine technologies.
The framework is structured into three parts:
- Part 1 outlines the aims and principles of the framework;
- Part 2 details delivery aspects for different occupations;
- Part 3 specifies learning outcomes and training specifications.
Peter Brown, PSRO secretariat, said: “With education being a key part in terms of plant-emission reductions and from a programme jointly developed by CPA members Flannery Plant Hire and L Lynch Plant Hire & Haulage, we’re pleased to have built upon and created the framework in partnership with the [Supply Chain Sustainability] School.
“This will help ensure that future training courses on this topic both cover the relevant industry-derived content and provide a platform for the consistency of the training of plant and site-based occupations through this open-source framework.”
The new training delivery framework is available to download here.
