Does a person have to know how to use a torch to attend the train-the-trainer class?
A16: Yes, otherwise, he will not pass the hands-on part of the class. If he does not possess torching skills, he should spend time before the class with a roofing crew to learn how to handle a torch, set it up, break it down and practice using it.
