level 2 arboriculture rfs

[Undercut]

Evening all,

Well after the hcc folded I applied to myerscough, for this year's intake, I've just done the pre entry test and I've to wait a week or so before I know if I've got a place,failing this is there anyone else who offer this as a distance learning course?

The full level 2 arboriculture is what I'm wanting to do as I like the content and reckon it's a good grounding for starting off, what's the general view on it and any other routes to get certified, sorry to go on Lol

Cheers

If you look up abc awards some further info on this as they are the body that deals with the level 2 certificate. I've also been in touch with Iain at arbschool about them running this course in the future. Needs to be enough interest...

I would be interested in doing this distant learning course as well, was ready to sign up to the hcc course last year but glad I decided to think about it a wee bit longer.

 

Price would be a deciding factor.

I started this course through Myerscough last year and had to pull out after 5 months as I totally underestimated exactly how much work was needed for the course, probably 2 hours a night to be involved with the all the online discussions and research that is required plus time at weekends to complete the projects. I saw that the HCC were offering the same course but when the founder of HCC suddenly died they decided not to take on anymore students. I phoned the contact, Max Faulkner on the HCC website this morning and he told me that they were going to reinstate all the courses that HCC were running and offering Arb level 3 courses too when everything had been finalised with the RFS, he reckoned about 2 weeks and it should all be up and running again.

 

Hope that helps
