It's partly another urban myth, scaffs cannot be seen to be wrong. However a thread states a two day refresher will be needed for refreshing scaffolders cards, it is not on the agenda.

You can still get a cisrs card if you have not upgraded from you old CITB card.

Yes you do that , I have had 4 good trainees come to me all who along the line have had the "pleasure" of being instructed by him ( not taught, that's what I did for them).
All of them said they felt jackin the course in which they didn't .
One of the lads asked him " on the handrail sleeves is it good to face the bolts down so nobody catches themselves ?" answer .... "dunno Fu€k em"........
Ask him why staffing off takes longer ?
Ask him why he plays the big I am to all the young lads ?
You get some good instructors and some that are shocking ..
I've never met him he might be ok in the pub but as for the day job ...oh well !!

7.5 tonne wagons can only carry 3.5 tonnes of tube! NOT ON A SATURDAY MORNING THEY CANT WHEN ITS JOB AND KNOCK!!!
 
Redviking, how long ago was this? Andre now works for us and we don't see any of this in fact his course feedback is really good. I think the longer you do the job the more experienced you get. I also think we give a lot better back up service than mancat do as they have no scaffold specialists.

I would ask Tom p as Vegas just been taught his advanced by him.
 
Hi guys, Andre gets no complaints from me i found him really helpful. Any questions we had he answered well and explained things. He even showed us a few tips when doing stuff.

We all decided to go in earlier to get some revision in and he came in earlier than usual to help with the paperwork side.

I only spoke to Andre and Dave Abe and they both seemed well on their game!
