Tree Preservation Orders - a Practical Guide to Working Within the System

 

26th February 2009

 

The most frequently failed domain in the UKI Arborists Certification Examination is No. 14 Statutory Protection for Trees That says it all, candidates most often fail in the one domain that is unique to the UK Arborists Certification examination. This implies either practitioners are not up to speed with TPOs or the teaching of this area is poor or the marking in inaccurate!

 

This workshop will provide an invaluable guide to how the TPO system works in reality. It will cover all aspects from creation and service through objections, exemptions to applications for consent. The programme will cover the legal and policy framework in detail and provide invaluable guidance for practicing Arboriculturists and allied professionals who use the system.

 

Content

 

* What is a TPO (Principles and actuality)

* The Policy Framework and Appraisals

* How to select trees for inclusion;

* Creation & Service (covering all the usual errors and mistakes);

* How to object to a TPO (reasons and approach including a template);

* How to make an application (with humorous examples)

* Administration of TPOs (again with humorous examples);

* Exemptions and specifically the impact of Perrin v Northampton;

* Consents and conditions;

* Appeals;

* Up to date digital approach, the Planning Portal and One-App;

* A TPO Assignment based on a real case;

* Trees in Conservation Areas;

* Possible changes to the system in the future

 

This workshop is for anyone who comes into contact with TPOs on a regular basis. Effectively the whole of the industry. Specifically those who should attend are Consultants, Tree Officers, Contract Managers Landscape Architects, Chartered Foresters and indeed Lecturers and Trainers. This is a not to be missed opportunity to get up to speed with TPOs

 

The Workshop will carry a CAS / UKI Certificate of completion once the assignment has been handed in and graded and continuing license holders will get regular updates as changes happen. This therefore represents a way to get all of the information that you need to confidently work with TPO's and the means to keep up to date with changes in the future.

So is it aimed at cert arb level or consulting arbs?? You'd have to be worried if a TO needed to attend the course!!!

" specifically those who should attend are Consultants, Tree Officers, Contract Managers Landscape Architects, Chartered Foresters and indeed Lecturers and Trainers. "

 

Its pretty clear who the CAS believe it to be aimed at.......

 

"The Workshop will carry a CAS / UKI Certificate of completion once the assignment has been handed in and graded "

This bit?

 

The most frequently failed domain in the UKI Arborists Certification Examination is No. 14 Statutory Protection for Trees That says it all, candidates most often fail in the one domain that is unique to the UK Arborists Certification examination.

 

Why run on about the cert arb failure rates when pitching a course to consultants and TOs??? Odd thats all!

[treequip]

Don’t get too locked on the cert arb thing, I don’t think it’s aimed at potential certs. They are however a valid market.

 

Dealga is running the course so it will have pukka content.

 

On another note, the CAS homepage sports a nice picture of the venerable David Lloyd Jones up a tree sans head protection.

 

I know he is particularly proud of this picture because it featured in Cheshire Life magazine but it’s a bit off when the word PROFESSIONAL rides oddly enough just where the helmet out to be.
