CHAINSAW COURSES

Chainsaw Safety

Using a chainsaw brings with it the inherent danger of injury. A lack of understanding and inexperience combine to make a recipe for disaster. At AgriLearn we pride ourselves on delivering a training experience that gives each individual a real insight into the dangers of chainsaw use and the practical opportunity to learn how to minimise the risks through understanding and safe technique. Our courses are designed for the at-home user, someone new to chainsaw use or for those using chainsaws in the workplace (other than forestry).

Refresher/Competency

A one-day course aimed at refreshing and updating skills or assessing the current competency of those who have already completed the two-day unit standard based course. Or those who just want to use a chainsaw safely at home.
