Ground-Based Chainsaw Training (Operations) – Refresher
Our Ground-Based Chainsaw Training Refresher Course is a modular approach towards the need to refresh chainsaw skills.

Prerequisites: This course is intended to refresh your skills in ground-based forestry and arboriculture, prior to undertaking any of the units you must first have completed the original course.
