Category 3 Training
This one day "no-jargon" course is run by our training officer Steve Boothman. It is aimed at any enthusiastic amateur who wants to get the most out of their display and use our Cat 3 material (for sale to the general public) to the best advantage. The courses are taught in a relaxed and innovative way and introduce the latest "best practice" as used in our own displays. Everyone goes away with new ideas to make their displays not only safer but also more exciting.
All aspects of Category 3 fireworks are covered including:
- Firework Families (mines, rockets, cakes, candles, etc)
- Site choice and layout
- Risk Assessment
- Health & Safety considerations before, during and after the display
- Choosing your fireworks
- Display Design
- Safe set up
- Hand firing
Throughout the day there will be hands-on sessions outside. You will learn how to set up the different types of fireworks; fire them safely and at the end of the day there will be a short demonstration using a selection from our huge range of exciting material. A certificate of attendance will be awarded to all those who take part.
Last but not least one of the most popular features is the FTS lunch!
A full day`s course including course notes, lunch and refreshments costs £195 per person.
