A TFS spokesperson said the training will occur on the crane being used to construct the helipad at the Launceston General Hospital, which is currently located between the new helipad and the hospital.
"If you're in the area and see emergency service personnel and activities around the crane, don't be alarmed, it's planned training," the spokesperson said.
"There is no threat to the community."
