Level 3 Technician's Certificate Syllabus
A separate 3 day preparatory course is offered in September for those candidates who are successful in the written stage of the examinations. (see 3 day prep page.)
May we at Tree Life take this opportunity to congratulate all those that has pasted the Technician's Certificate with special mention to Justine Hobbs, an individual Student of ours, who has been named as the 'best student' of 2007. Its great to see that many of those passing this year have had some form of training with Tree Life whether that be on a full time course with us or through our 3 Day Preparation Course.
WELL DONE EVERYONE!
