Arborjim on this forum is looking for someone, but you need a driving licence. TBH i think you will struggle to find work without one.

If you've already been doing treework then you may have enough experience/on the job training to pass some of the NPTC assessments. It will be the cheapest way to get your tickets if you just go for the assessment without stumping up for the full courses as well. All depends on how much training and experience you've had as to whether your ready for an assessment. I think you can veiw the assessment criteria on the NPTC website- if you feel confident about knowing all the answers then just do the assessments. The dole might pay for some degree of training if you hassle them and show that it can lead to work.

 

A girl on a course I was on last year had managed to get her basic chainsaw and tree climbing course paid for by the dole!!!!!

Might still be worth asking them about funding training. The girl I mentioned above had been working self employed and still managed to badger nearly two grand out of the dole for retraining and PPE!! As a tax payer I couldnt beleive I was hearing what she was saying when I had just stumped up 700 quid out of my own pocket!!
