Training costs gone mad

[Andymacp]

I've just received a quote from my local training provider up near Inverness.

For windblown and multiple windblown training only with me providing the site. Two days £820 + VAT!!!!!! And another £250 for assesment!!!!!

I have done course with them before albeit not for a while and they were normally £600 for 4 days.

Is this normal ???

Sounds pricey to me have you tried ring link?

That was ringlink.

I wonder if there's any assesser on here that thinks their worth £600 a day

[Guss109]

Oh that's a surprise I just recently did my cs32 with them and was 4/500 inc assessment I think. Might be worth giving Bryce a call to check the prices

[Andymacp]

Yeah sent an email but they didn't get back.

Have you tried Malcom Moore (Treewise) near Elgin? He should be cheaper than that

what ever you do avoid the inverness collage bunch, you would be lucky to get an assessment in 5+ years

[Spruce Pirate]

Was that a bespoke course for one person? Even if it was it still seems expensive, but if you have four candidates for training that's £1640 for a trainer for a day???? I know trainers have costs, and if it's through the ring then there's their on-cost as well, but really - £1640 for a day???

 

I'd be genuinely pleased if any trainers on here can justify that cost.
