Chainsaws are dangerous but, when used with proper training, they become an invaluable tool in helping make forests healthier. Our chainsaw safety training courses are perfect for individuals of all skill levels. We teach the most up to date techniques in a safe and inclusive learning environment. By the end of all four levels, students will have learned to work safety and efficiently, and be able to identify and disarm an array of hazards. Our goal is to demonstrate that every felling plan and cut is an opportunity to learn new skills and develop your own informed cutting strategies.
