Proclimber Professional Training
Proclimber Training Courses for NPTC Assessments
NPTC assessors are not allowed to assess candidates they have previously trained; all assessments are organised through a Chainsaw Assessment Centre (CSAC), please call us for details.
Proclimber Training will, however, arrange an assessment for successful trainees at the appropriate time if required.
All NPTC assessment & registration costs are set by the individual CSAC, and this will depend partly on the combination of assessments taken; contact us for further details.
Please note that if candidates fail any assessment units there is no refund. It is therefore a good idea to undertake good quality training or updates before going for an assessment, to give you the best possible chance of passing the assessment and gaining the qualifications.
