REAL TRAINING FOR THE REAL WORLD

Let’s make it clear. We don’t just teach Dozer (although that is our forte).

We teach Plant Operations specialising in the fundamentals of how to move muck…

EARTHWORKS.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Nathan
Dozer Funded Bootcamp
I attended the Dozer bootcamp in December and loved it. After completing the training with Chris and passing the test, I am confident to go out and start work straight away. We learned a lot of real life work operations in the machine like moving material around, muck shifting with a 360 excavator and ADT and even got some training on gps system. I can’t recommend Chris and DOTTS training enough.
Bernard
Site Ready Training
I met Chris on Monday to improve on the dozer. I found him to be patient, professional and very knowledgeable. His training approach is excellent, exactly like your'e on a construction site with all the obstacles you would expect to come across on site. He's not just training you to use the machine, he is helping you to keep a job by working under real site conditions. For any one coming into the industry or already in it, I can't emphasise how good this training is. It is what they advertise, and you won't be leaving disappointed.
Sam
Dozer Training
Chris took me on as a complete Rookie. His infinite patience and tutoring has helped me obtain my red card CPCS - A34. I cannot recommend Chris highly enough for his patient and professional approach to helping me achieve my ambition. I now look forward to starting my Dozer experiences. If you are looking to add the Dozer ticket to your career .. whatever you do dot not hesitate to contact Chris. You will find it enjoyable and a most rewarding choice . Many thanks for everything.

CPCS Testing
I have been to Chris for my 360 tracked, 360 wheeled and ADT. Very professional service in every way, excellent value for the quality of service DOTTS provide. Cannot recommend them enough, I will definitely be going back in the future
Gio
Dozer Funded Bootcamp
Did the dozer bootcamp, Chris was very knowledgeable and explained himself well. Decent kit and the training site is good with plenty of space to do stuff with the dozer you wouldn't get with other providers, he trains you to operate the machine in different environments not just how to pass your test, passing on some great real world info and tips that you can really benefit from. Highly recommend dotts,100% worth it.
Dwane

Paul
Dozer Course
I did the dozer course here and can't speak highly enough of chris as a trainer and he's not a bad operator himself 😉. This is the 3rd CPCS test centre I've trained at and DOTTS is by far the best one and it's the only one that does more than just get you to pass a test.
