Students need to be 18 years of age or over with some achievement at GCSE or in relevant further education qualifications.

Applicants could be employed or actively engaged within the Arboriculture industry or related disciplines in the widest sense.

Although not an entry requirement of the course, it is strongly recommended that applicants try to gain experience within the arboricultural industry during their year of study, or are already practising arborists.

 

Anything below L2 involves making sure you can remember to tie your shoe laces. Who did that answer come from?

From the lady who emailed me the entry test. I did pass but having spoke to the tutor he thinks as I'm doing the 4 week practical course next year it will put me to behind on the theory. He Suggested I should gain my tickets first, then next September I can start the theory.

The thing thing with modern learning is that everyone involved is scared of a bad "ofseading" so they don't want anything else getting in the way of their teaching. Better grades make for a better ofstead report.

That's why they want you to keep the learning compartmentalised, they don't trust you, errr I mean, your time management to do both at once.

Yeh I was thinking of switch to the hcc college as it's the same qualification but over 2 years.
