The Arboriculture Diploma course will also teach you the standard tree surgeries and essential pruning techniques like crown thinning, cleaning, reduction, lifting, renewal, and general branch removal. The diploma course covers all vital elements of tree work that you would require as a professional arborist at the introductory level. The Arboriculture Diploma course aims at individuals employed in the tree work industry who want to add to their knowledge and other activities in their workplace. It is also suitable for people who are looking to enter this industry. It provides a way to higher education in the field.

A well-designed, well-thought-out arboriculture education is supposed to cover a broad range of topics. You are learning the basics of the field that are necessary skills to work in the industry first. A solid foundation for knowledge regarding these skills leads to a better comprehension of more advanced skills and concepts and helps learn them. The Arboriculture Diploma course does not deal with just how to cut down trees. In addition, it discusses diseases and pests that threaten the health of trees and how to remove them properly if necessary. An introductory course covering a wide range of topics allows the learners to further specialise in different sub-disciplines within Arboriculture and other related professions. If, for instance, you want to switch from being an arborist to a public garden caretaker, our diploma course in Arboriculture would allow you to do so.

Tree removal costs a lot of time and money and is a huge decision. Besides time and financial commitment, it significantly changes the tree's environment. Cool shades are taken away, leading to exposure to hot sunlight. There may be animals who made their tree the home and are rendered homeless, and protection is taken away from flora and fauna of the surroundings, exposing them to frost, strong winds, and other possible hazards. Some species of trees are more hazardous than others. Some drop branches due to badly rotted branches and trunks. This may result in severe damage, mainly if the trees are located near children's playgrounds, buildings, or outdoor living accommodations. These and other risks that trees may bring often validate the removal of parts of a tree or the whole tree. The shadow cast by trees may deprive other plants growing on the same lawn of sunlight, hindering their growth. Tree branches growing over houses shed leaves, block the gutters, and rub on the walls as the wind blows, causing noises and distractions. Wet leaves piling up on the ground can become slippery or smother tinier plants and require raking. Some trees must be removed because their roots damage building foundations, block pipelines, and damage the walls of pavements and other structures. To sustain a career in Arboriculture or to open and keep a business running in the industry, you need to have the skills to perform the job. This industry does not require high qualifications or advanced degrees, but it requires experience and expert knowledge. You need the skills to identify and differentiate hundreds of tree species and can manage and care for them, depending on their kind and where they are growing.
