UK provider of Manual Handling Train the Trainer courses and Patient Handling Train the Trainer courses

Nationally recognised instructor courses for object & people handling

Welcome to Alistair Bromhead Ltd – a training company specialising in manual handling train the trainer courses. If you want to become a manual handling instructor or need refresher certification, you are in the right place!

Dr Alistair Bromhead developed the City & Guilds accredited programme: Manual Handling Train the Trainer course (for inanimate loads and objects) and we are the only company able to deliver the course. We also offer a 4 day IOSH People Handling Train the Trainer course and a 1 day IOSH Evacuation Chair Train the Trainer Certificate.

Virtual and face to face training

For many of our courses we can offer both virtual and face to face options.

We are often asked about the frequency of refresher training. Every 3 years is the typical suggestion of the certification bodies but we also offer shorter updates which could be considered on an annual basis to refresh practical skills. 

Our list of clients and their feedback are second to none. 

IOSH Evacuation Chair Train the Trainer Certificate

We have IOSH accreditation for our 1 day Evacuation Chair Train the Trainer course. This provides nationally recognised certification for your trainers and we can train on a wide variety of chairs – either in-house or on our open courses.

Manual Handling Risk Assessor Certificate

A one day course which we can run in-house at your site to train assessors on the underpinning knowledge required for manual handling risk assessment. We integrate lots of practical sessions to make use of HSE resources such as the ART, MAC and RAPP tools as well as more traditional lifting, carrying, pushing and pulling assessments.
