Here at Coastal Tree Care we like to do things properly – as I hope is evident from the website content. This week I’ve been working through the LANTRA Professional Tree Inspection course with Derek Brinsley at Newlands Training. Although there is no actual requirement to obtain this qualification in order to write tree risk assessments or other arboricultural reports, I consider that it is worth the investment both for CPD (continuous professional development) purposes, and to provide an assurance to clients that I am competent and able to write professional tree inspection reports.

 

I have to wait a week or two before I find out if I have passed, but I’ll be providing an update here irrespective of the result. Fingers crossed…
