Galloping

So I contacted NPTC via there website and sent this email Hi I passed my Level 3 Award in Emergency Treework Operations (0021-05) in March 2019, and I was lead to believe that this qualification enabled me to deal with Individual Windblown Trees and Assisted felling of trees. Can you please clarify that I am qualified to carry out these operations with this qualification. The reason for this enquiry is because I have been told my qualification no longer exists so there for I can’t carry out these operations. Your speedy reply to this would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards 2 weeks Later I got this reply via email "Dear Jason, You will need to contact a centre local to you for further information regarding NPTC qualifications. Please go to our website nptc.org.uk in the red tab at the top click in to qualifications, then click on the qualification you are interested in. You can search for centres local to you by using the 'Find a Centre' button on each qualification page. Please enter your postcode for a list of centres along with their contact details as you will need to contact the centre directly for further information regarding the course, such as cost, availability and duration. Should you require any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact the Customer Services team on 02476 857300. Kind Regards" So as you can see they never answerd my question, then 4 days later I recived this email from them "Dear Jason, Thank you for contacting NPTC Customer Support. The Individual Windblown Trees and Assisted felling of trees qualification is a newer qualification which does not have a prior equivalent, and as such, completion of the Level 3 Award in Emergency Treework Operations (0021-05) would not cover the content of the Individual Windblown Trees and Assisted felling of trees qualification Should you require any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact the Customer Support team on 0247 685 7300. Kind Regards" So, what does the Level 3 Award in Emergency Treework Operations (0021-05) actually cover me for??? because I am none the wiser lol

Thanks very much for your reply’s, I will contact NPTC on Monday and will give you an update on what they say. Cheers

This is a link to the qualification in question https://www.nptc.org.uk/assets/documents/cc88100e2e544eff9b214656a1fab439.pdf The trees are no bigger than 20” 500mm

Hi, could anyone tell me, if you have this qualification NPTC Level 3 Award in Emergency Treework Operations, then you do not need Level 3 Certificate of Competence in Individual Windblown Trees as this is incorperated in the Emergency Treework Operations ticket. Does this ticket also cover you for Assisted Felling. Thanks
