What is the difference between an arborist and an ISA Certified arborist? An arborist is trained in tree care. He has the proper tools & equipment to work in & with trees. There is a big difference however. Arborists who have been ISA certified have a minimum of three years of field work in the tree industry & have completed a course of study & passed a comprehensive exam to attain certification. In order to stay ISA certified, the arborist must always be involved in continuing education as the certification requires a certain number of CEU's (Continuing Education Credits)be obtained each year. This insures the homeowner that this person is trained on the latest science & technology with regard to tree care. |
