Assessment fees

[Bomag]

Have these changed this year?

I have the Merrist Wood directory and it shows the fees for the cs 30/31 course as £110, Ive just had my registration forms through and I now find out its £110 plus £126

I think I need to look at becoming and assessor at these kind of daily rates (4x£236)

I know a acessor who gets £200 a day in his pocket!

assessors are paid a fair price.

but you have to jump throu a lot of hoops to get there, you also have to be self or part employed. you have to pay for your own assessments to get quald in the first place. and youl find the assessment centre actualy gets a cut of it, just for pushin paperwork!

at the end, assessors dont actualy get much, once you work it all out.

your assessment price should still only be about 120-150 squids at the most tho.

The one I know paid for nothing, the college paid for all assessments and the £200 he is paid is on the side at the week end.

[Bomag]

Its the fact that the fess have doubled in less than a month.

Not impressed.

[Arborist]

I think Merrist wood are expensive anyway, search around and you should find them cheeper!

[Bomag]

I will be calling them and asking to explain how the price in the directory (that I picked up on 120110, and that they said was correct) is so far off the price theyve just sent me.

"the assessment centre actually gets a cut" I can assure you the centre has to put in a lot of work too, and only puts on a modest margin, private centers are businesses too remember and have overheads to cover. "Pushin paperwork" rather under values the role of a professional assessment centre.

Is one not a registration fee for NPTC and the second the assessment fee?
