PEST CONTROL OPERATIONS EQF LEVEL 4 / MODULE 4  - APPLY & MONITOR THE PRESERVATION OF TIMBER IN STRUCTURES

The Direct & Monitor the Preservation of  Timber in Structures module has been developed to enable the pest control operator to become proficient in the  preservation of timber in structures. This module has been designed to be used in commercial, industrial and domestic environments where you have to control wood destroying organisms.



Included is a practical assessment and optional 3-day practical session.

The Direct & Monitor the Preservation of Timber in Structures module deals with the following elements:


  1. General
  2. The legislatory environment
  3. Wood as a raw material
  4. Wood deterioration and the causative agents
  5. Wood preservation & control measures
  6. Rates, calibration & equipment
  7. Fumigation
  8. Wood-destroying organism detection
  9. Health & Safety


In order to complete your qualification, you need to complete two modules, the compulsory module and one specialization subject, which will give you a minimum of 145 credits. This is a distance or correspondence course and you will be writing your exams directly on the Internet, when you are ready and feel confident to sit the examination. You are also permitted to write the examination at the Academy’s premises. The practical assessments will also be done every month in Amsterdam and twice yearly in Italy and Spain.


Although this is a distance learning / correspondence course, you have the option of attending a three day course at our Amsterdam training centre on all the elective or specialization courses at no extra charge, if you feel you need more hands on training, which is always recommended.
