Advanced Tree Inspection

 

The course is designed for those aspiring to carry out tree inspections at a professional level as well as to consolidate and update the skills and knowledge of inspectors already practicing at this level.

The two day course places emphasis on gaining practical experience of carrying out tree inspections and identification of defects on trees.

 

Areas covered will include:

 Understanding the legal framework in which tree inspections are carried out.

 Professional standards and duties of tree inspectors

 Interpretation of the body language of trees and the VTA method

 Collection of data and recording of observations in the field

 Evaluating tree risk

 Making decisive management recommendations within appropriate timescales

There is a Visual Tree Assessment (VTA) lecture given in the evening at the end of the first day. This will cover areas such as the established principles of VTA and an update on latest research.

 

The course will be limited to 14 people and we are planning to hold the first course on 30th November- 1st December 2015.

 

The location of the course would be at Pembrokeshire SA62 4AS

Cost: £270 for the two day course, lunch and refreshments are included.
