  16. Hi all, Just been given some info that Silvanus trust here in cornwall are looking to take on 5 forestry apprentice's in the Devon and Blackdown area. I think i may be to old to be taken on as i'm 33 but might be of some interest for the younger peeps on here Click on link below The Silvanus Trust is working through partnerships to regenerate the woodlands in the South West for economic, social and environmental benefits Good Luck
  17. Been to St austell college today here in cornwall and they say that i can get the level 2 for free as i have no current level 2 awards apparently any adults who do not have any level 2 awards qualify for this?? Also said they would fund one of my cs/nptc units aswell, wish i knew that before i booked myself on a course!!
  18. The self study type you can start whenever you like and the college route started in september i have my name on list and would have to play catch up. College is once a week so hopefully some one will drop out. Lynher training here in cornwall do a similar course with just the basics and certificate of attendance which i was thinking of taking aswell to help me with the Rfs
  19. Thanks peeps for your replies, think i'll go the college route as i can ask the tutor and other students for advice if i get stuck on certain points of the course
  20. I was thinking that especially with the little ones running about and drawing in all my course work!
  21. Hi all, I'm due to start my CS30,31 Soon and was looking into other courses to complement the practical side of it. I've seen the level 2 certificate which looks very interesting and will give me a fair amount of knowledge understanding how things work and so on. There are 2 options i have found, 1 home study (ABC) 2 College study at duchy college here in cornwall (RFS) Just really wanted any opinions and advice to which course to take? Thanks for taking the time to read
  22. Don't get me wrong i don't want to start my own business, want to get all my courses finished (what I've paid for by saving loads!!) So hopefully i can find work with an honest firm to make an honest living
  23. I have been looking into becoming a tree surgeon for a while now and have done alot off research into courses ect I have saved every spare penny i could so i can take my courses, and become a professional tree surgeon and even offered to work for free to gain more experience!! Its hard out there to find work but if u put your heart and soul into it and go the right way around it (not picking up a saw without the knowledge and understanding) Cant we all share the rewards??
  24. ok look forward speaking to you
