Wholesale Fuel Industry Training Solutions

For wholesale fuel staff the NPCRS Delivering Fuel course focuses on ensuring staff are refreshed on the risks and hazards of delivering to a fuel retail site.  Recognising that fuel delivery drivers are extensively trained and qualified, this short course is focused on refreshing the additional risks that the retail site poses.

Fuel Industry Contractor Training Solutions

For those who do works on a fuel site, it is important that they have a demonstrated understanding of the risks and hazards associated with undertaking works (from lawnmowing to concrete cutting to fuel site design and installation).  The NPCRS Introduction to Working on Fuel Sites course offers an excellent site induction course that exposes contractors to the specific risks and hazards that a fuel site encompasses.  Offered as part of the National Petroleum Contractor Recognition Scheme (NPCRS) this course is delivered online.  For more information on the NPCRS please see;
