This training is designed to equip learners with the skills to identify potentially hazardous trees as part of their everyday duties and to report concerns to the appropriate person. No prior in-depth knowledge of tree biology, legislation, or specialized arboriculture is required.
It is important to note that detailed tree inspections to assess tree health or condition must be carried out by trained and competent professionals. Such inspections may require specialist equipment and expertise in areas such as biomechanics, pathology, and relevant legislation.
This course is suitable for a wide range of learners, including:
Local authority highway inspectors
Forestry, woodland, or arboricultural workers
Park rangers or estate staff
Farmers and landowners
Employees responsible for trees in the course of their work
Volunteers who work with trees
By completing this course, you will gain the confidence to recognise signs of potential hazards and take the appropriate steps to ensure safety, supporting a safer environment for everyone.
