Final Assessment. Whilst there is no examination on our intermediate course we feel strongly that group leaders and those travelling to remote locations carry a responsibility to be able to act quickly and effectively should the worst happen. Therefore to ensure you receive a Forest Knights certificate we need to ensure that every candidate has the skills understanding to make the correct choices to ensure the best possible outcome.
Group Discussion question and answer session.
