A professional web presence for a UK-wide workplace training provider, built to outline courses and generate enquiries
The Brief
RTW Training Services delivers on-site workplace training across the UK, specialising in forklift trucks, MEWP, working at height, construction equipment, manual handling and vehicle banksman. The company had built a strong reputation over more than 30 years — but without a website that properly communicated that experience, they were largely invisible to businesses searching online for accredited training providers.
The brief was to create a professional, credible web presence that outlined RTW’s course catalogue, clearly communicated the benefits of on-site delivery and gave potential clients enough confidence to make contact. The site also needed to work for a range of audience types — from sole traders and small businesses to large commercial operators booking training for multiple employees.
The Challenge
Health and safety training is a sector with real complexity. Clients often don’t know exactly which course or accreditation they need — they just know they have a legal obligation to ensure their team is properly certified. The website had to make sense of a broad catalogue of courses without overwhelming visitors or burying the information they were looking for.
At the same time, RTW’s key differentiator — coming to the client’s site to deliver training rather than requiring employees to travel — needed to be front and centre. Convenience and flexibility are genuine selling points in this sector, and the site had to lead with them rather than hide them in a ‘Why choose us’ section that most visitors never reach.
The Approach
The homepage headline I settled on — “Delivering first-rate training services at your workplace nationwide” — does three things at once: it states what RTW does, where they do it (your workplace) and how far they travel (nationwide). Every content decision after that was designed to build on that core message rather than distract from it.
The navigation structure was organised around the course categories rather than abstract sections, so visitors could quickly find the type of training they needed. This was a deliberate choice to put the user’s intent first — most visitors arrive with a specific training need in mind, and the site should get them to the right place immediately.
The Solution
I designed a clean, professional WordPress site with course categories presented as the primary navigation — Forklift Trucks, MEWP, Working at Height, Construction Equipment, Manual Handling and Vehicle Banksman. Each category has its own section explaining what the training covers, who it’s for and why it matters from a compliance standpoint.
The “About Us” section explains that RTW has been providing materials-handling and safety training for more than 30 years, with copy emphasising on-site delivery, tailored courses and experienced, approved instructors. One standout addition was RTW’s satisfaction guarantee — a promise to refund clients who aren’t delighted with the training. That kind of commitment is unusual in the sector and, once on the page, does significant work in converting undecided visitors into enquiries.
Key features delivered
- Course catalogue structured by category — Forklift Trucks, MEWP, Working at Height, Construction Equipment, Manual Handling, Vehicle Banksman
- Homepage headline that immediately communicates on-site, nationwide delivery as the core proposition

The Outcome
RTW Training Services now has a website that properly reflects the quality and experience of the business. Visitors who arrive looking for accredited, on-site training can quickly understand what RTW offers, reassure themselves of the company’s credentials and take the next step — whether that’s browsing a specific course category or picking up the phone.
For a business built on 30 years of reputation, having a professional digital presence means that reputation now works harder online — reaching businesses that would never have found RTW before and giving them an immediate reason to choose on-site training with an established, trusted provider rather than a generic classroom-based alternative.
