Training

Health and safety has become a major issue in all work situations, no more so than in the arb and forestry industry.
At Treeworkes we have tailored a range of NCTP accredited courses to meet every arb application.

Course prices 2007
Course prices are based upon 4 people attending (other than IPAF which allows up to 8). Prices do not include equipment which the candidates are expected to provide. Equipment can be hired from Treeworks at a nominal charge. Please enquire.

For MEWP operators course Treeworks has adopted the International Powered Access Federation (IPAF) as accrediting institution. The IPAF qualification is recognised throughout UK industry, not just arboriculture, and provides commercial and industrial customers with the competency reassurance that they are used to.

For courses ref TW11, 12 and 13 Treeworks will provide machinery suitable for the purpose. Class room based training will be undertaken at Queensferry unless clients request differently. Treeworks has extensive training woodland in nearby locations.
