Details:
Tree report writing is an additional skill required to that of simply being a good arboriculturist, the higher the level of report required the greater the degree of skill required to write a successful report for your clients.
Tree Life pride themselves on providing training of the highest quality based on their educational and Arboricultural expertise and experiences combined with that of practicing in the field. The courses would be taught by a qualified teacher, qualified expert witness who is also a registered consultant of the Arboricultural Association.
In our opinion a programme of one day courses is required to guide and to give the necessary feedback opportunities to candidates undertaking report writing instruction. Therefore, Tree Life has put together a practical programme that will allow a candidate to develop their report writing skills over a period of time and have those reports assessed informally and to receive feedback on their performance.
The programme is designed so that a candidate may join at any stage or can build upon their skills as time and experience allows. Each stage of the programme is timed and priced to reflect the staged approach and allow candidates to build upon their experiences. All prices are plus VAT at the standard rate of 17.5%.
