📢 NZ Arb and the Skills Shortage Working Group have been working hard to ensure our industry has a voice in the ongoing vocational training reforms, including the disestablishment of Te Pūkenga. These changes could significantly affect how Arboricultural programs are managed, supported, and funded across New Zealand. While we’ve had opportunities to participate in the consultation process, the potential impact on our industry is already being felt. We're working tirelessly to understand the full extent of these changes and their effects on our sector. In the coming days, we’ll be reaching out to both members and non-members with updates and ways you can get involved. Your support will be crucial as we come together to protect the future of our industry and ensure we're putting our best foot forward. In the coming days we will be reaching out to industry with information about how you may be able to help. keep an eye out here for more +

We are loving all the positive feedback from the industry about our time together in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, but let's take a moment to acknowledge the businesses who committed to the success of this year's conference well before the first scone was served. Let's hear it for our 2024 conference sponsors 🎉🙌🎉🙌 #industrysupporters #sponsors #arboriculture #arborists #nzarb #treecare #urbanforestry

🌳 Industry Collaboration in Action 🙌🌳 Here's a Tuesday tale worth celebrating - a fantastic example of how collaboration within our industry can create powerful, lasting impact. You will remember the brand-new Husqvarna T542i XP Top Handle Arborist Battery Chainsaw donated our major tree climbing partner Husqvarna New Zealand, for the Sempervirens Trust Auction at the recent NZ Arb Industry Awards Dinner. So, after a spirited bidding war, another NZ Arb sponsor, Karl and Lisa from Arborlab Consultancy Services Limited, secured the saw with an incredibly generous $3,000 bid ...but the story doesn’t end there! Karl and Lisa then generously donated the saw to Wintec - Waikato Institute of Technology, where it will be used to train future arborists. This wonderful gesture not only supported the Sempervirens Trust but also reinforced the importance of educating and empowering the next generation of arborists who will continue to shape and grow our industry. A shining example of how two key industry supporters, Husqvarna and Arborlab, stepped up once again to support both the arb community and our future professionals. We are so grateful for sponsors like Husqvarna and Arborlab, not to mention all the other champions, sponsors and investors in our industry. 📸 Phil (Husqvarna), Karl (Arborlab), Rob (Wintec), Lisa (Arborlab), and Steve (Husqvarna) #Arboriculture #IndustryCollaboration #NZArb #SempervirensTrust #Wintec #Husqvarna #Arborlab #FutureArborists #CommunitySupport
