TTE aids vehicle fitters to NVQ
TTE Technical Training Group completes programme of NVQ competency validation for vehicle fitters from Marske Site Services.
The course was devised by TTE in close partnership with McNulty to ensure every one of the operatives working on the project has a strong understanding of the project, the company for which they are working and the important safety practices employed.
Permit to Work was delivered to new and existing McNulty employees at Level 1 for operators and Level 2 for supervisors.
Carried out over a 12 week period, TTE had four of its experienced training team involved in the delivery.
The refit of Global Producer III was a major boost for the Tyneside shipping industry and saw McNulty's staff levels dramatically increase to be able to meet the demand of such a large project.
The floating production, storage and offloading unit is one of a range of different types of floating systems used by the offshore oil and gas industry.

As the UK's largest employer-led technical training provider, TTE delivers industry personnel with relevant qualifications focusing on competency and safety.
Sasha Keyworth, McNulty Offshore Health and Safety Manager, said: "We are focused on ensuring our personnel are equipped with the best safety knowledge to ensure smooth running of our operations".
"Working alongside TTE we have developed a high level of competency among the workforce who have a better understanding of the project and their role in it".
Hazel Lince, TTE Business Unit Leader said: "The competency and safety of McNulty's personnel was key to maintaining the quality of the service the company offers to its clients".
"This project is a good example of how TTE works very closely with its customers to devise, deliver and assess bespoke training programmes, which validate and enhance the quality of the workforce".
