Community Forestry Short Course
Planning and Managing Green Infrastructure
March 29, 30, and 31, 2016
9:00 AM - 4:45 PM
Penn State University & Web-based Internet Training
 
Planning and managing the green infrastructure of street trees, parks, and open spaces will help any municipality safely take advantage of the many benefits these assets provide. With proper planning and management, these assets appreciate and pay us back with time. This Community Forestry Short Course is designed to help municipal shade tree commissions/committees, and staff, including managers, arborists, and foresters; community tree advocates; and volunteers gain knowledge and skills in the effective management of public trees in Pennsylvania.
 
Participants will have the opportunity to attend live sessions in State College, or via the internet, or watch recorded lectures on their own. Attend all 3 days of training or just one or two days.   A certificate will be awarded to people that participate in the sessions live or via the internet.  Seating is limited to 25 attendees for the live lectures at Penn State University
**  Continuing Education Units (CEUs) will be offered for ISA Certified Arborists, Pennsylvania Certified Horticulturalists, and Landscape Architecture.
