The Training Resource Center at College of the Sequoias will be offering Pre-Inspector Level 1 Training. This training was designed to educate participants to patrol power lines to ensure vegetation clearance in accordance with safety regulations.

Participants will cover a variety of topics over the course of two-weeks:

  • General safety
  • Tree biology, growth rates, identification, and clearance
  • Utility tree risk assessment and hazard tree assessment
  • Contracts and customer communications
  • Reporting electronic tools

After graduation, 95% of participants have been hired as pre-inspectors.

Pre-Inspector Level 1 Training requires full-time participation. In an effort to support participants, the UVM Scholarship Program provides a $1,200 stipend to college-approved participants upon successful course completion.
