OUR TOP TIPS
So, you’ve booked onto our training course, and your upcoming training dates are nearly upon you. Make sure you have read our top tips to go into the training with a fresh mind, ready to pass your test on the first try!
Study the Course Material Thoroughly
To pass an NPORS course, it is essential to study the course material thoroughly. The course materials will provide you with essential information about the machinery and safety procedures. You will need to know how to operate the equipment safely and effectively before you even step foot in the machine. Make sure you understand the information before you start the practical part of the course. Our experienced instructors will be able to answer any questions you may have prior to getting out into the training area.
Take Notes During the Training
Taking notes during the training can help you remember important details and procedures that you may forget otherwise. Writing down important points during the classroom or practical sessions will help you review the material later.
Ask Questions
Don’t be afraid to ask questions during the training. The instructors are there to help you understand the material and to help you succeed in the course. If you’re unsure about something, ask for clarification. Clearing any doubts during the training will help you perform better in the practical assessment.
Practice, Practice, Practice
Getting to grips with the machinery and equipment is crucial for passing your NPORS training courses. You must ensure you are carrying out the correct operating procedures, manoeuvres, and safety protocols until they become second nature. Becoming familiar with the plant equipment or information you need to remember, will help you build muscle memory and confidence in operating the machinery.
Stay Calm During the Test
The tests at the end of the course can be nerve-wracking, but it’s essential to stay calm during, to perform to the best of your ability. Remember, you’ve prepared for this, and you know what to do. Stay focused and take your time to read and understand the questions carefully. Rushing through the test can cause you to make mistakes.
Be Familiar with the Machinery and Equipment
Familiarise yourself with the machinery and equipment you’ll be using during the course. Knowing the machinery’s features, functions, and safety protocols will help you operate them safely and confidently. It pays off to do some research at home, outside of your training hours.
Maintain a Positive Attitude
Maintaining a positive attitude throughout the course can help you stay motivated and focused. Believe in yourself and your abilities, and trust that you can pass the course.
