Is the AA running these outdoors anywhere or have they all been moved online now? As a newcomer to the industry I'm not sure how much I'll be able to pick up through a screen, I really wanted to get in the woods for this not just get the qualification for the sake of it, but I can't find any providers offering outdoors courses anywhere  near North wales. 

 

Anyone else done the online version and able to offer any feedback?

Hi there, not currently unfortunately, all are online...an option which is likely to remain post-pandemic.

 

However, I would anticipate we will return to face-to-face training when possible and where demand requires it.

 

I deliver the online training and whilst it is different, stating the obvious and after delivering many courses face-to-face previously, I'm satisfied the key message and information does get through.  

 

Tbh, "getting into the woods" with it is a post-course activity for yourself, ideally accompanied by a more experienced tree surveyor/inspector, even on f-t-f training the amount of time outdoors is limited.

 

Hope you get something sorted...and maybe look forward to meeting you (virtually) at some stage in the future.

 

ATB,

Cheers for your reply Paul! I think if I can't find any F2F courses within a sensible distance soon I may as well sign up to one of these on the basis that it's better than not doing it at all! 

 

Is the Arb Association registered for Focus on Forestry First funding do you know?

Not sure.

Speak with Sarah at Head Office, the Training Coordinator, [email protected] who will hopefully be able to advise.
