Help reqd please cs30+31 @ Base in penkridge??

[mark_j]

Im looking to obtain my cs30+31 at some point this year, i live in burton on trent in the midlands, looking on the nptc site base @ penkridge seems about the closes/best choice for me. I just wondered if anyone has been there recently and could tell me what its like? i think for both courses and assessment it costs around £640, is that about the going rate? i believe you have to take your own gear, a chainsaw with a 15" bar, is the correct?

 

Many thanks mark

If your with Ian Morgan at base then you wont go wrong. Dont know any of the other guys there.

£640 sounds about right. Some places will supply all the kit, others dont. If you have your own saw that works properly, then its not a bad idea to use it for the assessments, as you will be more familiar with it.

Dont know if its still on at the moment but if u took out a sub with Total Arb (£9.99) u got 10% off at BASE - could save u a few £££

Is it the rodbaston college? if so it's good! i went through them in nov. the instructor was clive harrison. cant say enough about the level of training. I also borrowed al the kit as part of the course free of charge. all the best.

no BASE is about 10 mins down the road from rodbaston and also there is countryside training and tree management is also in that area, who i have done some of my training with, also they were great very relaxed. we are just spoilt for good trainers round here

I can fully recomend BASE. I did my CS30 & 31 & brush cutting there last year. Ian Morgan is a top bloke, his training is very good. He has spent a long time working within the industry. Ill be going back this year to do my CS38 & 39

 

You can borrow all the kit you need from them.

 

If you take out a Total Arb subscription you can save 10% on your course costs.

 

BASE is located on the Buxtons site on the A34 between Cannock & Stafford. You'll get plently of time to go into there shop & spend a fortune.
