    Hello, I am currently in my last year of employment with the army and have been interested in a career in Arboriculture for a while and tried researching it as much as possible. I was am hoping to do my courses at Kingswood training center and gain CS30 CS31 CS38 CS39 Woodchipper, Stumpgrinder. Then also do my first aid UA1 and UA2 if possible at TKF training. I am then hoping to get employment in the North West of England. However on looking online at current job vacancies is there any hope on me getting any employment without any prior experience in the industry as every jobs seem to require a minimum of 3 years experience. Any advice or comment will be appreciated thanks. Matt Slack
