discobob Posted January 8, 2020 Report Share Posted January 8, 2020 Has anybody heard about this course? https://www.lantra.co.uk/course/shotgun-coaching A one day course when the CPSA Coaching accreditation is a whole series of courses (Safety officer, Instructor Development Workshop and Instructor Training Course). The Lantra ones don't even look like they take place on a shooting ground Discuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telf Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 If im not mistaken this is something to do with squirrel shooting / air rifles , ive seen it mentioned on facebook groups connected with shooting greys , £90 springs to mind for a day course which gives you a bit of paper to say your a competent shooter , Might have it all wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Foster Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 They appear to be charity based at Stoneleigh with the aim of providing training on a variety of countryside based activities. Its doesn't follow that it is waste of time nor is it clear it does everything it says on the tin. Planning and delivering training on a specialist subject (where everybody thinks they know everything already) is not easy, leading me to assume the CPSA process and courses are the best route.

wymberley Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 Good outfit. Most of their work relates to training business staff in various land based hands on activities in terms of a range of skill levels and H&S knowledge. This particular course could, say, meet the requirement for a basic employee training standard prior to the issue of any required trading licence/standard or insurance cover for a shooting range.

Salopian Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 I think this may be referring to a course run by Ann Lichfield who runs the Lantra Loaders course nationwide which seems to be very well received . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discobob Posted January 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Found this on SD https://www.thestalkingdirectory.co.uk/threads/after-the-dsc1-another-training-option-lantra.41811/page-2 and also an older thread on here - from looking at the website it appears there are a number of providers around the country..

welshwarrior Posted January 14, 2020 Report Share Posted January 14, 2020 Most of their courses are very good. However the coaching cse erm no. It’s a kin to an IDW or the corporate instructor in CPSA terms it give you a tiny bit of knowledge to look after someone on the first steps but not coaching. If you’re serious look at APSI/CPSA or even BASC form my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unico1 Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 I did the cpsa one last year, very intense, not a walk in the park but very thorough. Recommend it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
