I don't know the route for NPTC assessors, but if you would like details of becoming a Lantra instructor contact the instructor team at: [email protected]

The general requirements are that you have a some form of instructional techniques or teacher training (if necessary they can help by putting you in touch with the trainer for a 5 day instructional techniques course); an up to date first aid certificate; some form of Health & Safety training; and the technical certificate or other evidence of technical competence in the areas you wish to deliver training.

Once the application is received, the instructor team arrange for an interview ( often done over the phone) carried out by one of our technical verifiers, this is followed by a 1 to 1 Technical Evaluation and then a Standards Course.

Usual line, if you were looking to do Ground Based chainsaw for example, would be to cover chainsaw maintenance, cross cutting and felling upto 380mm, and then look at adding other skills ( over 380mm, windblow etc. at a later date.

Hope all that helps
