We only have one G and it is for our Grass cutter and mowers course. So here’s more details in our series of short blogs looking at the A to Z of courses we do.
The mowers training course have two variations, either the pedestrian type which majority of us have in the garden shed or the ride on versions mainly use by horticulture companies.
Course ratios – Grass Cutters & Mowers
The course durations, training and testing ratios are
Novices : 2 days for 4 Delegates
Refresher & Test : 1 day, up to 4 delegates
Experienced Worker Tests (EWT) : 1 day for up to 6 delegates. Alternatively for EWT’s we can mix the training with our other horticulture courses such as Hedge Trimmer, or Shredder course meaning 2 candidates can be tested on all these categories in the same day by completing three tests each.
Here is a link to our web page containing all the information you need to know about the training we can offer.
Accreditation
Upon successful completion of the course the candidates will received a Kentra Training ID card (credit card size) detailing the course completed.
In addition, we have the option to register the training with our Awarding Body NPORS. www.npors.com If your candidates are working offsite or on other peoples premises a recognised Awarding Body membership maybe advantageous. Prior to training we would apply to NPORS to register the course and upon successful completion of the course we would apply for the candidates 5 year membership with the NPORS scheme.
