Woo-Hoo, just found out today I passed the TCIA Certified Tree Safety Professional exam I took in Hartford.
(sorry for the self promotion, but what the hell, I'm happy)

Congratulations!![]()
My boss sent two of us to the CTSP in Hartford, both of us passed! Still not sure what I think of the program though.
I really thought the program would focus more on safety, but after speaking with Peter the next day, TCIA assumes we're already very knowledgeable in safety and it's more a certification to instruct safety to others.
As a business owner the extra certification can only help me (and my insurance rates). It also makes you more marketable.
With injuries on a rapid climb it seems soon a safety officer will be mandatory on all crews.
If I ever get the time I may also try for a CTE (it's not mandatory in NJ . . . yet).
