The Forestry and Arboriculture Training Fund will reopen for applications in the coming weeks, offering free, practical courses in forestry and arboriculture in England. The fund is designed for people considering a change of career or seeking to build and diversify their skills in forestry and arboriculture. Funding for courses is limited and we would encourage those interested to apply early when the fund reopens. You can find out more and search for course locations and training providers on the fund portal: https://lnkd.in/eZcd63MJ #ForestryCareers #FutureForesters
Would any of these courses help with a Forestry Commission job application?
🌳 We have delivered 100% funded training under this scheme to >500 candidates over the last 12 months. It’s been exceptionally popular. Ensure you know the price and cost of the course(s) you plan to apply for in preparation of the grant re-opening.🌳
I'll definitely be taking a look at this. Great opportunity!
Can you apply for courses from 2/3 different providers. 2 courses are practice and the other two are theory.x
I have read some of the criteria and was wondering about the First Aid courses. Need to have them to do the chainsaw maintenance/ cross cutting/ felling upto 380mm. Are these courses run in conjunction or would we have to get first aid done first???
Good luck everybody who is applying.🙏🏾🤞🏾❤️
So the fund is strictly for those in U. K
Oh this is extremly interesting.x
Does anyone know of something like this in the States?
