I have absolutely no problem with people doing courses that make them better at their job (a 'learning to dig' course would be a handy starting point for some 'experienced' diggers, but that's already been argued out on another thread....) - but I notice no one has leapt to the defence of NVQ1 Health and Safety? Most of the 'basic' courses that people are sent on are so basic as to be pointless, as any potential employer would realise. And I'm not entirely convinced that an EH dayschool on slags would count as a transferrable skill.........
Have to admit I haven't bothered to upgrade to survey equipment with buttons - that's what proper full-time surveyors who actually know what they are doing are for.... :face-stir:
.....and anyway theodolites, tacheometers and the like are so much more fun (or is that my brass fetish showing?)
