Tech Cert notes

[madm]

Anyone got course notes for the AA cert that they're willing to sell? I'd like to do it but haven't got the money for the online course. Don't mind too much what they're like as long as the bones of it are there..

Have a read through the syllabus then buy some books and download as many free bits and pieces as you can.

Know what you're right, I was thinking that it'd be a bit much to do it with no guidance at all but now that I read through the syllabus I suppose it'd be possible to do just by reading up on stuff and making notes...I saw three day prep courses for the September exams on that treelife website; do you reckon they're a good idea?

[Paul Barton]

If you want actually enter for the exams then I reckon the 3 day course would be very valuable. However, a fair bit of prior knowledge would be expected as I think it is mainly for people that have done the course.

 

However, as you say, if you have swatted up yourself it could work.

The treelife courses are well worth it. Even if it's just for the practice funghi / tree / pest etc idents.

Good luck

The rfs course is a good grounding for the aa tech

 

the same ground covered but the aa tech is obviously a bit more in depth

I did the course but missed the exams due to sum **** murdering my mate a few days before the exam so was not in the best frame of mind.

The price has certainly shot up.

 

Plant ident is the tricky bit as in they are not sp that you come across in every day (well in my line anyway)

 

biology bit read botany for gardeners by brian capon thats the buisiness

 

I will take the exams one day but work has taken over.

OH to be a student with all those young ladies!!

**** man, sorry about your mate. Not surprised you didn't feel like getting stuck into the "arboricultural significance" of 72 types of feckin shrubs after that!

Thanks for the advice
