FANTASTIC news for all the chaps who have recently enquired with us. If you’re reading this expect a phone call.
Utility Aboriculture Course Changes
It may come as a suprise to some that NPTC are no longer offering assessment and certification for the UA 3 and UA 4 courses! While this may affect some businesses who rely on NPTC to supply this service we as a training provider realise that Utitlity Aboriculture is a very specialised area. Should there be anyone out there who requires the delivery of the training please contact us as our instructors have years of industry specific experience.

TKF Training in Ireland
This is our opportunity to shout out to our instructors and BIG UP the guys who have recently been working very hard over in Ireland for us!!
Tony P who sucessfully assessed an unfathomable amount of UA courses across numerous sites over several weeks and rarely saw his own front room!
Bob B more recently delivered the Strained Wire Fencing course with a 100% pass rate and a battle against the elements!
Tim K only last week braved the Irish weather and delivered CS 38 Climb Trees and Perform Aerial Rescue & CS 39 Operate a Chainsaw from a Rope and Harness courses. It is on good authourity that the chaps taking the course were exceptionally fit tree climbers and all passed with out any problems.
Well done to all of the chaps that passed and a HUGE thanks to all of our professional instructors.
