Course Information for Students

This course is for individuals who operate and carry out tasks in dealing with individual windblown trees as part of their work in arboriculture, forestry or other industries. It will provide the individual with the knowledge, understanding and skills required to carry out this work.
 

Candidates must have achieved the 0039-20 Level 2 Certificate of Competence in Chainsaw Maintenance and Cross-Cutting (or equivalent versions). Verification of this must be produced prior to the start of the course.

The course will cover hazards, risks, controls, emergency procedures, legislation and industry good practice in dealing with individual windblown trees.

This course will be delivered on-site.

All specialist safety clothing, chainsaws and ancillary tools can be provided by the College, for which a fee will be charged.

Candidates may use their own chainsaw providing that it complies with current legislation.

Please note that equipment is not available for hire for the assessment. You will therefore need to have other arrangements in place for your assessment.

It is recommended that candidates do not purchase specialist equipment prior to the course. During the training, advice on the purchase of all specialist equipment will be offered by the course instructor.

Assessment leading to certification should take place as soon as possible following the successful completion of the training course.
