" Thanks for the great boost your organization gives to the Arboriculture industry. Since retirement from Springville City, Utah, my time has been devoted primarily to consulting. I still climb and have been teaching my grandson the art and science of arboriculture. Perhaps he will carry on the work and be involved, as I have, in promoting excellence in craftsmanship and sound science. ArborMaster has filled a void that has existed in the tree care industry in the US since well before the Second World War. My training started in 1955 under a graduate of arboriculture who tutored me on a personal basis for two years. What a tremendous difference your company would have made back then! Again, many thanks and best wishes for a great future.

ArborMaster Certified Instructor Program
ArborMaster’s Certified Instructor (AMCI) Program takes ArborMaster instructors through foundational to advanced skill areas (chainsaw operation, felling, rigging, and climbing) and foundation to advanced teaching areas (adult learning, professionalism, managing the class). By the end of the AMCI curriculum, ArborMaster instructors are proficient in:

  • transferring skill to their students
  • motivating them to learn
  • providing students concrete ways to take training back to the job
  • providing a learner-centered experience

The AMCI program enrolls instructors who meet rigorous pre-requisites and have significant assistant teaching experience in ArborMaster modules.
