Key strategic achievements from 2019-2021

  • April 22, 2022

Promoting Professionalism

A lot has changed since the Institute published its three-year strategic plan, Promoting Professionalism, in 2019. The forestry and arboriculture sector has bounced back from COVID-19-related challenges and tree professionals are now busier than ever with climate targets to reach. We have quickly adapted to the changing environment and continued with our work to support members and to promote professionalism in the sector.

Click below to see some of the achievements from our 2019 – 2021 strategic plan.
