Let me know how I can help
BOOK YOUR OWN COURSE & DATE
I want to contribute to my community!
Let me train your friends, colleagues or your crew at your place of business!
If you are supplying the venue, it must be appropriate for the number of candidates with sufficient space, ventilation and facilities. I am doing my best to help out other small businesses. I prefer a minimum of 8 to a max of 18 candidates. Please message to inquire :)
My home base is in Nelson, however, I do travel to train within the West Kootenay area including Trail, Rossland, Fruitvale, Castlegar, Salmo, Kaslo and the Slocan Valley. I am also potentially able to do Kelowna and Kamloops with appropriate venue and accommodations' provided.
