ISA Certification Program Scholarship Opportunity
ISA, in cooperation with the USDA Forest Service Department of Urban and Community Forestry, will cover the cost of the exam, ISA and Chapter membership, the study guide and a local or regional training workshop. In return, the scholarship recipient will provide 80 volunteer hours in their community, over a two year period, to help educate the public and community leaders on proper tree care practices.
Any arborist working for a private tree company, a tree company contracting with any government entity, or the municipality is eligible. You must meet the necessary experience requirement to become a certified arborist in order to apply for the scholarship.
The scholarship recipient will determine potential volunteer opportunities in their communities and then will review them with the State Urban Forest Coordinators for input and suggestions.
