[mikecotterill]

anyone reccomend somehwere for an nptc chipper course in the northwest-ish. tried tkf they want 140 quid plus 390 for an assesor for the day, myerscough havnt got one planned and parkside who havnt answered the phone yet. surerly somewhere must be running one.

failing that does anyone want to jump on the tkf one with me and my mate would be 240 all in roughly with four people total. cheers mike

Under the HSE guidelines, the training should be to meet PUWER standards, Lantra does that? Have you been asked for NPTC?

[kipperfeet]

Parkside have closed down last year. If you know your way around a chipper then just print off the schedule from the NPTC web site (08 version) read up and register through the Lancashire assessment centre. (about £90) they should pass on an assessor. Failing that if you want the training for an NPTC assesment or just the training put your name on a list ay Myerscough or try Millhouse training.

 

PM me if you get stuck, i may have a slot for the assessment on a day when theres only a couple to do.

I think nptc seems to be more accepted/known commercially. Myerscough don't seem

bothered about the business twice now ive wanted to get on a course, been put down in a list and never heard anything.

 

That might be the thing to do, where wiuld I get the schedule from? Cheers.
