Im using nptc for everything else, just trying to put so many guys through at once seems a lot easier with lantra, we have a gang of 7 going and its done in a day, where as if I went with nptc our local college (85miles away) runs it over 2 days, and a lot more expensive, added to that the extra days down-time for the guys it suddnley becomes VERY expensive

although the nptc ticket tends to be more influencail, the rules are you should have a certificate of competance. it dont matter whos name is on it (lantra, nptc, in-house)

 

in the past, the two were seperate courses.

nowadays, lantra does a course, nptc does the assessment of that course.

with lantra, chaps are trained, then given a certif, this usualy expires after five years, which encourages updates, which can be very handy.

as nptc is just an assessment, you either pass or fail, its not hard to pass if youv been using the kit relativly safely, i passed mine easily without anyprobs, and without the lantra training.
