TECHNICAL AWARDS > Forestry & Arb > Brushcutters and Trimmers
There is a growing range of Lantra Awards courses under this heading. We have undertaken a thorough review of these courses and revised the existing course, with a new workbook and amended assessment for the standard Brushcutters and Trimmers course and a new course covering Hand Held Hedge Trimmers. We are in the process of developing a number of further courses, due to be available by spring / summer 2007.
In these courses you will learn:
- Regulations and industry best practice
- How to protect yourself
- Preparation, operator maintenance and pre-work checks
- Safe, effective operation
- Emergency procedures
Currently, we have the following courses available:
