Fleet 4x4 Driving School:

Applications for NGO, Corporate, Military, and Scientific and Academic Research

By training with us, on our purpose designed course, with our specific curriculum, your organization can be assured of a very consistent and applicable hands-on background. Over the years we have found that training in country and/or with a variety of trainers does not allow for a predictably trained team or staff---as you may know, that spells trouble.

Your team can attend our training sessions before their field assignments by visiting our New York or California locations. Train you people to the exact same level and with the exact curriculum before they are on assignment.

The value of real world experience:

Is one more day of field time valuable? If so here is a real world example to think on: Your team member gets their vehicle stuck in sand. After 10 minuets in this situation an axel breaks-- VERY common. The results are............

$1500 of parts and labor, 2 days lost while repairs are carried out, 2 years of research data stolen, one laptop stolen, three items (artifacts) stolen, one team member with a broken forearm, main team as a whole broken up and geographically distant, etc

Proper training can minimize or completely eliminate these risks.  What is it worth? Would it have been worth an investment of $150 per team member to ensure did not occur?

What would you give to have one or two days extra time in the field? Clearly preparation is key to a reliable schedule. Your team is well prepared for their specific tasks, so do not overlooked the fundamental aspects of a well prepared land operation---vehicles and their operation. Your team is relying 100% on their vehicles and perhaps their guides. Consistency and predictability is key to any remote area application.
