cs30&36

[martin p]

Back in 1999 I did cs30 &cs36 through the now defunct F.A.S.T.CO.

Just out of curiosity, would these still be valid?

Hi

Very few would recognise them tbh.

and when you say 30 and 36 what do you refer to as fastco never used numbers that i can remember.

Big issue really is they were a cert of attendance and now we generally expected to have proof of competency which is why it changed to nptc and lantra ita

I expect he is reffering to nptc which was cs30,36 back then. If it was nptc then technically still "valid" but in the eyes of hse and some insurances you should still be taking refresher course every 3 years for infrequent users and 6 years for frequent users

Thanks Ben,I should have made myself clearer,the courses were nptc cs30 & cs36-chainsaw maintenance and cross cutting downed timber. conducted by a fastco registerered instructor No 414.

At the time I was working for a company doing a lot of site clearance etc and this was paid for by them! The chainsaw work I do now is mainly my own firewood from local farms and I would expect to do certificates of comp. again if I was to work in the industry again ££££££££! just curious really,thanks again.

Yes even the old cs10+ credits are still valid, although cs36 has been merged as cs30.2
