WILDFIRE RISK REDUCTION QUALIFICATION

Rome-Floyd County Library
January 8-9, 2025

9 a.m. until 5 p.m.

205 Riverside Pkwy NE, Rome, GA 30161

11.5 CEUs applied for

The threat wildfire poses to residents increases everyday as more communities are built in natural areas. Recent fire seasons have seen increasing property loss and death associated with wildfire. We know that it is not a question of if a fire will start, but when.

The Wildfire Risk Reduction Qualification (WRRQ), developed by Texas A&M Forest Service and Texas Chapter ISA, expands the reach of the state forestry agency’s wildfire prevention messaging while equipping certified arborists with another tool in their tool box to meet client needs.

As professionals who have daily interaction with the public, arborists can help reduce wildfire risk and protect lives, homes and landscapes. When homes and their surrounding property are protected, ecosystem benefits are protected as well.

The Partnership:

The GAA will provide education and credentialing to their membership. The Georgia Forestry Commission and trained instructors from the GAA will provide expertise in fire behavior, wildfire prevention, home ignition zone, fire-resistance species, and arboriculture. Instructors for the WRRQ courses offered by the GAA are composed of a cadre of experts.

The Qualification:

As an ISA Certified Arborist, have you considered how your skills and experience can improve the safety and quality of tree care to protect people and ecosystems from wildfire? Becoming Wildfire Risk Assessment Qualified will increase your knowledge on how to evaluate and mitigate property from the threat of wildfire, allowing you to provide that service to clients and constituents.

The Course:

Explore how wildfire moves through a landscape and learn to identify mitigation options that can be recommended or performed on client properties to reduce the risk of loss from wildfire. This course will incorporate classroom sessions and conduct field exercise on homes near the training center with 11.5 CEUs applied to your ISA Certified Arborist credential. A written exam and field test must be successfully passed to gain the qualification. Total course time is 16 hours.

Registration Cost: 

$250 GAA Members
$300 Non-members

Coffee, Snacks, Lunch and all necessary course materials will be provided.

Hotel Block:

About the Speakers: 

Warren Williams 

Cindy Schwab, currently serving as Operations RC Talent Manager of the East at Davey Tree, oversees the people and culture function. With a career spanning over two decades in the Green Industry, Cindy brings a wealth of experience, having excelled in various roles such as fieldwork, sales arborist responsibilities, and management of both field and office teams.

Cindy earned her bachelor’s degree in Uban Forestry and Parks & Recreation from UW-Stevens Point, followed by an M.B.A. from National Lewis University. She further enhanced her skill set with a Certificate in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion from The Ohio State University. Cindy is recognized as an ISA Certified Arborist and holds prestigious certifications such as SHRM Senior Certified Professional and Certified Diversity Executive (CDE).

Mateo Fennell is the Community Forester for Athens Clarke County, where he nurtures both trees and relationships with equal care. He holds a Bachelor's of Science degree from the Eugene Odum school of Ecology at the University of Georgia.

As an ISA Certified Arborist with TRAQ and WRRQ qualifications, Mateo doesn't just know trees he speaks their language ... and often translates so the homeowner can hear. For more than 20 years, Mateo has worn many hats (and helmets), including those of climber, sales arborist, and plant health care technician.

But perhaps his most unique title was as a technical representative for a Fortune 500 company, where his specialty was "verbal firefighting" -extinguishing misunderstandings with wit, patience, and charm. Trained in conflict resolution, de-escalation, and even the art of snake and human charming, Mateo brings a unique blend of expertise, humor, and empathy everywhere he goes.

El viernes 31 de enero se llevará a cabo un taller de capacitación en seguridad de la TCIA sobre trituradoras (astilladora) de madera y motosierras de un día completo en Atlanta Forest Products, 1080 Donald Lee Hollowell Pkwy NW.

El curso de Especialista en Operadores de Trituradoras (astilladora) y Motosierras de la Asociación de la Industria del Cuidado de Árboles está diseñado para capacitar al personal de cuidado de árboles en los peligros, así como en las prácticas aceptadas para el funcionamiento de las trituradoras (astilladora) de ramas y otras tareas asociadas. Este curso brindará a los trabajadores de la cuadrilla de árboles una capacitación formal que aumentará la participación en el cumplimiento general de la seguridad de OSHA y la autovigilancia.

Las lesiones que involucran trituradoras (astilladora) de ramas y motosierras son una preocupación importante para las empresas de cuidado de árboles y los empleadores de paisajismo, así como para los trabajadores de cuidado de árboles que operan el equipo. La información anecdótica sólida del campo indica que los operadores de trituradoras (astilladora) y motosierras reciben poca o ninguna capacitación formal sobre el funcionamiento de las trituradoras (astilladoras) y las motosierras y el mantenimiento en el campo.

Los accidentes en los lugares de trabajo pueden ocurrir en cualquier momento y los profesionales del cuidado de árboles deben saber cómo reaccionar. Cuando un trabajador de árboles se lesiona o queda incapacitado, los compañeros de equipo son los primeros en responder a la situación de emergencia.

Bring your chainsaw and personal protection equipment

A TCIA full-day wood chipper and chainsaw safety training workshop will be held on Friday January 31st, 2025 at Atlanta Forest Products 1080 Donald Lee Hollowell Pkwy NW.

The Tree Care Industry Association’s Chipper and Chainsaw Operator Specialist course is designed to train tree care personnel in hazards, as well as accepted practices for brush chipper operation and other associated tasks.  This course will provide tree crew workers formal training that will increase involvement with overall OSHA safety compliance and self-policing.

Injuries involving brush chippers and chainsaws are a significant concern for tree care companies and landscape employers as well as the tree care workers who operate the equipment. Strong anecdotal information from the field indicates that chipper and chainsaw operators receive little or no formal training on chipper and chainsaw operation and field maintenance.

Accidents at job sites can happen at any time, and tree care professionals must know how to react. When a tree worker is injured or incapacitated, fellow crew members are the first to respond to the emergency situation.

En este taller aprenderas a entender las necesidades de poda de los árboles maduros y las técnicas correctas de poda para su cuidado. El taller está diseñado para arboristas y paisajistas para mejorar sus conocimientos sobre el cuidado adecuado de los árboles en el sector público y privado.

La poda es el procedimiento más habitual en el mantenimiento de los árboles. Si bien los árboles del bosque crecen de forma correcta únicamente con la poda natural, los árboles ornamentales requieren un mayor nivel de cuidado para mantener su integridad estructural y su estética. La poda debe realizarse teniendo en cuenta la biología del árbol. Una poda incorrecta puede provocar un daño permanente o, incluso, acortar la vida del árbol.

Una parte de este curso se llevará a cabo en el campo, por lo que se recomienda vestirse apropiadamente según el clima.

Acerca del instructor: Juan C. Carrasco es el Director de Cuidado de la Salud de las Plantas en Atlanta Arbor y un Maestro Arborista Certificado por la Junta con más de 30 años de experiencia dedicada a la industria verde.
