loler inspector course glasgow

[shabz1978]

hey all, i'm planning on doing this course at sac on may 11th. the only thing is, the course needs to be full to run. so i thought some of you guys might be interested. see http://www.sac.ac.uk/learning/training/courses/arboriculture/loler

 

for details. they emailed me back and said they weren't sure how much it would cost but last year i think it was about 300 quid.

 

also any advice on the course might be good? do we just sniff ropes for two and a half days?:ohmy:

Did the SAC course 5 years ago with Graham Watson, think he's left SAC now, which is a real pity as he was well respected in Scotland for the thoroughness and completeness of his knowledge on everything from propagation to felling. Anyway, the course then was pretty interesting, think it was 2/3 days lectures followed by written exam and thorough examination of arb equipment. You need to know your stuff, I think Petzl have info on their site about climbing equipment inspection.

Thanks, i'll have a look at the petzl site, it's always good to know as much as you can before you do these things!

 

5 years ago? time for a refresher maybe?

Refresher? I know more now than I did then. Dont see the point in refresher courses other than its a good way for training companies to make more money.

 

Good luck tho in finding other people.
