What is a Forward Tipping Dumper?
Forward Tipping Dumper training teaches operators how to use a wheeled dumper safely and efficiently in a construction environment. Delegates learn how to carry out pre-use checks, manoeuvre the machine, travel over varying terrain, receive and discharge loads, work around excavations and hazards, and safely shut down and secure the dumper.
SB Skills Solutions offers CPCS A09, NPORS N204 and in-house Forward Tipping Dumper training for both novice and experienced operators.

CPCS A09 Forward Tipping Dumper – The Construction Plant Competence Scheme is the most widely recognised accreditation scheme in the construction industry.
Ideal for operators working on sites where CPCS certification is required.
Training and assessment can lead to the CPCS Red Trained Operator Card, with progression available through the relevant NVQ route toward CPCS competence.
NPORS N204 Forward Tipping Dumper – NPORS is widely recognised throughout the construction industry and provides another route to recognised plant operator certification. On successful completion of the course, delegates will receive a Red Competent Card which is valid for 2 years. In that time delegates will be required to complete the relevant Level 2 Plant Operations NVQ in order to update their card to a Blue Competency Card.
