It's a basic one-day course to give you the knowledge to be able to identify potential hazards. We'll guide you through the process with a balanced mix of theory and practice. You'll learn the relevant health and safety issues, as well as key legislation and risk assessments. A practical session identifying hazardous trees will also form part of the course.
