Few people who work with trees have an innate knowledge of how to best care for them. Also, science and experience are always adding new findings. Whether college educated in arboriculture or working up in the ranks of field work, everyone needs continuing education to best serve the interests of their community. Here are four good ways to economically invest in the continuing education of tree board members, workers and supervisors:

1. Provide funding for attendance at one of the conferences or workshops that are listed on this page.
2. Participate individually or as a group in webinars.
3. Purchase and share texts on arboriculture or urban forestry.
4. Download and share a complete set of Tree City USA Bulletins.
