Emergency Treework is one of the most highly pressured areas of chainsaw use.

Our qualification will help you build on the skills and experience you already possess.

For professional chainsaw operators working in forestry and arboriculture the industry recommendation is that for ’high risk‘ activities the minimum level of adequacy of training is to a certificate of competence or nationally recognised qualification where assessment is carried out independently of the training. This qualification meets this requirement’
