Practical Training for Chain Saw Users
What makes FISTA's Chain Saw Safety Training so effective?
FISTA comes to your jobsite and provides each participant with hands-on experience. Using current technology, tools and cutting techniques, FISTA customizes the training to fit your needs and stays on the cutting edge of new information and equipment.
Different levels of Chain Saw Safety Training are offered based on your previous training and skill level. We have Basic, Intermediate and Advanced programs which gradually build off of each other. After attending a Basic workshop, we encourage individuals to practice the techniques they have learned for several weeks before attending the Intermediate or Advanced workshop. This allows an individual to be completely comfortable with the equipment and techniques before learning how to deal with more hazardous situations.

"A very confident and skilled instructor. Very valuable and safety oriented information."
"I have been using a chain saw for twenty years and I learned new material today."
"Very interesting course. Very good maintenance and safety topics for anyone who has used or will use a chain saw."

"The instructor had a great deal of practical experience that I learned a great deal from."
"Anyone who uses a saw needs to take this class. Too many people use a saw occasionally and have no idea about safety requirements."
"Excellent class both in knowledge of instructors and the ability to communicate."
"Excellent presentation. I learned more in six hours than I have in the last twenty-five years. I had never heard of the plunge-cutting technique until I heard it in this class. I have more cutting confidence already."
"I didn't think I needed this class until I attended it."
