doesnt mean full re assessment ,

re training doesnt = re certification of competance

it means re training / the demonstration of updates being absorbed into the business operations.

Refresher training is the same as a first time training?

[Josephine Hedger]

We run a lantra chipper and NPTC assessment course, one day if needed. Can be run on a weekend, but sepends on numbers. Is it just you?

 

Refresher training is not the same as first time training.Just attend a one day update every 5 years...one for ground, one for aerial. Thats what we offer...just to keep it as simple as it can be.

So Lantra chipper refresher training is different to a novice learning?

according to the HSe it is subjective , a pro user working in the field will need updating not retraining from scratch

Can you imagine the mayhem if every chainsaw user in the country who will no doubt hold multiple Coc had to go throw full re training

Dont get confused between competence which is assessed & training which isnt

but should be recorded to verify that it has in fact taken place evidence is best record toolbox talk etc issue / access to relevant produced literature etc.

So tell me the difference between, a Lantra CHIPPER novice course and refresher, YOU CAN still fail to achieve the standard on a refresher

its lantras own rules that their tickets only last 5 years

 

it is not a mandatory from anywhere else even the HSe give guidance & not rules or laws , however they could ask why you choose not to update , but if you can evidence that your ongoing work & reciept of updates are reasonable then thats your choice ,lets face it training & cert of competance once acheived show a duty of care to the employee & the Mahsaw puts the burden for safety not only on the employer but also the employee so if they dont engage in CPD then ..

 

 

,NPtc are NOT revoked however updates are good practise to avoid head in the sand
