Why Is Arborist Certification Important?

11/12/2019

You wouldn’t go to a physician without a license. So, why pick an arborist without a license to do tree care? The best services come from the most qualified tree experts. That’s why certification is so crucial. Below is the answer to the question, “Why is arborist certification important?”

What is an ISA arborist certification?
The ISA (International Society of Arboriculture) certification program guarantees arborists are schooled in every aspect of arboriculture. If an arborist is certified, it signifies they meet basic criteria like at least three years of hands-on, full-time experience in arboriculture or a degree in a related field such as horticulture, landscape architecture, or forestry.

Applicants must pass an exam and keep their certification through ongoing education or retake the test every 36 months. Specialists can also further obtain and specialty certifications in subjects like tree worker climber, arborist utility, tree worker aerial lift, board-certified master arborist, and arborist municipal.

What are the advantages of having a certified arborist?

They satisfy arboriculture criteria:
An arborist has passed a test crafted to cover all appropriate areas of knowledge to succeed in the industry. The process incorporates an application process, a test, and review after the exam. This connotates a certified arborist has met the ISA’s standards and have been approved and screened through their painstaking review process.


They show commitment to continuing education:
This certification means an arborist has tried to stay up to date and to attend continuing education classes. Certified arborists have satisfied the required amount of CEUs (continuing education units) over three years in addition to participating in local events, and taking computer-based training and seminars, staying current with first aid and CPR training, and taking college courses.


They have relevant, significant experience:
To get certified, an arborist must have at least three years in the field or a college degree in a related field. These experts aren’t beginners. They’re specialists who have put a lot of effort and time in the field and want to keep and build their experience during their careers. Also, the ISA encourages networking locally so specialists can work with each other to deliver top-quality service to everyone.
