NDTG expands its training coverage into Gibraltar

UK demolition training leads the World so it was no surprise that when the Gibraltar government wanted to train their Technical Services Department in the management of demolition projects they decided to contact NDTG.

The initial contact was made to Group Manager Sophie Cox in 2010 who proposed an amended version of the NDTG Demolition for Clients course written by John Woodward at C&D. Full details of the course content, learning objectives and learning outcomes was forwarded to the government for approval.


Despite the need for the course, funding had to be secured. It took four years for that to be achieved and a date to be set. In that time Sophie Cox had handed over all negotiations to Kaila Francis who was left with the job to win the order and arrange delivery of the course as required.

After many emails back and forth Kaila managed to agree the course dates of 3rd-6th February 2014 and then arranged for John Woodward to fly out to "The Rock" and deliver the training.


The training was well received, particularly the group work sessions that can be seen in the attached photos and video, and feedback indicated that the course was excellent, so much so that the Government are now negotiating with Kaila for further courses (Demolition Supervisor and Simulator) over the next twelve months.
