If you want introductory training in the theory and application of current tree and plant appraisal, register now to attend our TPAQ training. This event will utilize both instructor-led discussions and case scenarios to illustrate concepts allowing participants to become familiar with the relevant methods and techniques used to approach plant appraisals and the ability to make reasoned judgement about the value of trees and landscape plants.
Upon completion of this course, you will:
- Understand basic appraisal concepts
- Define the tree and plant appraisal process.
- Understand tree and plant appraisal, approaches, methods, and techniques.
- Apply tree and plant appraisal approaches, methods, and techniques.

The training culminates with an open-book exam that tests attendees on their comprehension of the learning objectives.
