Instructor Excellence Awards
On June 2nd Lantra held its first ever Instructor Excellence Awards in Stoneleigh, Warwickshire. The event was designed to recognise the immense hard work and dedication of Lantra's network of Instructors and Assessors, and proved it to be a great success!
Head of Instructor Network at Lantra, Stephen Roberts, said: “We were delighted to celebrate the fantastic achievements of our committed Instructor and Assessor network at the recent inaugural event ceremony."
The Industry Excellence Award Winners were nominated and voted for by Lantra Training Providers. Categories included: 4x4, tractors, lift trucks, pesticides, pest control, health and safety, ground-based chainsaw, tree inspection, aerial arboriculture, plant and machinery, and landscape tools.

The KNW Team are thrilled for you and it's great to see your dedication recognised!
Instructor Roger Madge said: “I am still on a high following the Instructor Awards. It was such a great surprise to have received an award and I am absolutely chuffed!"
And Steve Lodge, Pesticides Instructor said: "I am very honoured to have been nominated and to win this award"
We have an extensive network of carefully selected Instructors and Assessors located throughout the UK. We are truly grateful for the service, skills, and dedication they all provide.
Following notification of his award, Gary Foster responded to us with the following: "I am really flattered and grateful for winning the award from Lantra. I am also grateful for the opportunity to thank all those training providers who gave me a nomination.
It's a team effort really, without all of you training providers I wouldn't have the opportunity to do the training I love to do so much, so really the award is for both of us (but I'll look after it)!"
