    COURSES FOR OCCASIONAL USERS (LANTRA ITA courses)

    These two courses combine training and assessment, and candidates who achieve an acceptable standard will be awarded a Lantra Awards Certificate of Training which is valid for 5 years. For chainsaws, the ITA route is suitable for someone who intends to use the chainsaw for business, domestic or leisure activities, but does not intend to work in forestry or arboricultural activities or work on Forestry Commission land, or fell trees over 200mm in diameter. (HSE)

    The cost of all courses includes LANTRA registration and course workbooks. There is no VAT.
