" I cannot emphasize how much my employees learned and were motivated by the ArborMaster training they attended. New safer and smarter techniques were taught and the pros and cons discussed. Perhaps more importantly, everyone got a good opportunity to closely examine how they were completing the basic job skills, and if somehow they had learned how to overcome difficulties using unsafe practices.

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.
