The state has invested in regional, public-private partnerships targeting key industries that are vital to our regional economies. Important work is done throughout the state at these industry-led, public partner supported shared tables.

| TESTIMONIALS

What are people saying?

The Arborist Apprenticeship program has been an extremely informative experience for me. After completing just year one I feel more knowledgeable and comfortable in completing day to day tasks. A major benefit is its ability to slow down specific training opportunities in a way that isn’t always possible in the fast-paced work environment that is the tree care industry.”

- Tyler Williams, Tree Top, Inc. Apprentice

The Colorado Tree Care Sector Partnership has supported our company to implement a Registered Arborist Apprenticeship Program.  This in turn has raised the bar and created opportunities for growing our employees and hiring new employees. The partnership has become a great  way for us to use our resources together and to engage our industry as a community working to solve our common challenges.

- Josh Morin, We Love Trees

I’m investing my time into the partnership because it’s elevating tree care as a profession and creating much needed growth in the available workforce industry wide. This directly benefits our company’s ability to hire quality employees and uphold our pledge to be better arborists.
