會員們:

本會之前也有提過，為了迴避香港通訊局每小時限發約70封電郵的限制，本會在一年前開始，已經把大部分的通訊改放到Facebook (FB) 上面，基本上每週發出一到兩篇，各位不妨到 ‘中華樹藝師公會’ (https://www.facebook.com/chinaarbor) 或 ‘歐永森’ (https://www.facebook.com/sammy.au.54) 的戶口去查看。

本會訊息一般也同步發放到 FB 上面的幾個戶口來公諸同好，所有訊息都是公眾開放，沒遮沒掩，而每次都有逾萬人能夠看到，是本地區對樹藝行業最有影響力的文獻之一。 本會在 FB 上面的發表均可公開留言，但是不准偏罵謾扯，否則會將被馬上刪除。

‘現代樹藝學’ 的第十課在經過精簡調整後，出席人數達到95%，唯一美中不足者，仍然是缺乏時間去把史艾高博士 (Dr. Alex Shigo) 的 ‘真人騷’ 錄像播放出來。 由史艾高博士現身說法，當比講者千言萬語要好。 另外一點被反映出來的，就是每課的內容過份擠壓，令上課者感受太大的壓逼感，從而大腦消化不良。

針對以上兩點，課程將會再作調整，所教的頁數將會酌量減少，滕出的時間將會用來播放史艾高博士的‘真人騷’ ，這樣一來不會出現 ‘腦袋硬化症’ ，二來由這位 ‘樹藝之父’ 出場解釋，也是眾望所歸。

開辦 ‘現代樹藝學’ 的主要目的，是為了提高本地樹藝從業員的執業水平，這課程也是目前全亞洲的唯一一家，連 ‘洋顧問’ 都不敢去教。 因此，課程由開始到現在，都在不斷調整，也取得了豐富經驗。 由於這課程是用英語授出，所以全世界通用，本會隨時可以到境外授課，特別是東南亞國家。

第 11 課的內容以樹木生長為主，範圍包括Fertilizer timing for healthy & unhealthy trees, sapwood description, sapwood storage & transport, growth increment, tree vitality testing, tropical tree growth forms, etc. 等等，全部都是樹藝實務上需要知道的知識。

樹藝知識勝在比較，而不是炫耀證照。 站在大樹面前，也不再會有四條答案去挑一條，到時候又怎麼辦？ 只考過選擇題的人，又會懂得撰寫詳細樹藝報告嗎？ 寫報告的時候，閣下又是凴什麼去論證內容呢？ 哪光是懂得在客戶面前搖晃所謂的 證照’’ ，又有何用？

Dear Station Members,

CAA is proud to present our 49th session of Arboricultural Education to benefit our members. It is on the textbook teaching of Dr. Alex Shigo on ‘Modern Arboriculture – Touch Trees’ Session 11. This will be run in a series of 12 – 18 sessions, depending on progress.

“Modern Arboriculture’ Session 11 will be on Fertilizer timing for healthy & unhealthy trees, sapwood description, sapwood storage & transport, growth increment, tree vitality testing, tropical tree growth forms, etc. ‘Modern Arboriculture’ is not all about CODIT. In fact, CODIT would occupy less than 5 % of the total contents. The rest would be on everything from Wood Anatomy to Tree Biochemistry.

It is recommended that the attendees will bring along their own copy of " Modern Arboriculture - Touch Tree" as their textbook to the lecture. This book can be obtained at ISA & other online sources.
