The Lifting Industry Masterclass

The Lifting Industry Masterclass is a free-to-attend CPD afternoon delivering six 20-minute expert-led sessions on the most important issues in the lifting industry - from compliance and contracts to insurance, HR, assessment and marketing.

It is designed for LEEA members looking for actionable takeaways that can be applied directly to day-to-day business challenges across operations, safety and commercial performance.

The Masterclass takes place on Tuesday 9 June, 2pm–5.30pm, followed by a BBQ networking evening where conversations can continue informally with speakers and peers. The LEEA Golf Day takes place the next day, making this a valuable two-day opportunity for learning, networking and industry connection.
