會員們:

第一課的 ‘現代樹藝學’ 已經從50個位增多了到70個位，最終來了95人，真的非常感謝出席支持的會員們，也證明這種與國際接軌課程的受歡迎程度。 目前在大中華地區，這類全套課程只有CAA在教，其他的無論在政府民間、洋人華人，都沒有出現。 可以說，有錢都聽不到。

當今許多的樹木護理手法，從生產栽培、設計選種、修剪護養、到檢查評估，無不涉及 史艾高博士 (Dr. Shigo, 由本會譯音) 的 ‘現代樹藝學’。 假如自稱‘樹藝師’ 但從來不聞不問他的理論研究，只顧 ‘考牌’ 或只參加一些脫軌的 ‘本地訓練’(http://www.chinaarbor.com/caa-professionals-a-comparison-of-hk-local-tree-management-courses-with-international-%E9%A6%99%E6%B8%AF%E6%9C%AC%E5%9C%9F%E7%9A%84%E6%89%80%E8%AC%82-%E6%A8%B9%E6%9C%A8%E7%AE%A1/ )，哪您的基礎知識能到那裡？ 難怪 ‘洋顧問’ 在本地區大行其道，而自己也不敢出席國際會議來比較自己。

‘現代樹藝學’第一課的內容只是一些總結和心得，還未有進入戲肉。 第二課會介紹原林樹和都市樹的分別，進而討論樹體結構和木質解剖學，知識開始深入。

由於這是 ‘證書課程’，每位出席者的 ‘出席率’會用excel記錄起來，方便寫上 ‘出席證書’ 裡面 。 能夠獲得100% ‘出席率’的人絕對是一種榮譽，因為您願意付出時間來學習，沒有推搪。 在第一課也可以看到，過往有些簽了CEU就溜走的人統統沒有離開，一直坐到下課才慢慢起座，證明真的有心。

在每次講座完結之前，版面都會播出下一課的時間地點，方便有心會員不用等候會訊通知，都可以直接電郵留座。

以下是 "Modern Arboriculture of Dr. Shigo" 所有講座的統一 "Introduction" ，放在版面每次提醒:

1. This series of seminars (12 – 15 sessions), in a lecture form, comes from the book “Modern Arboriculture – Touch Tree’ of Dr. Alex Shigo. It is planned to have one session every month. We shall announce in Station Mail & Facebook (歐永森 or 中華樹藝師公會)

2. No lecture notes are given because you are supposed to have a copy of the book, or there will be infringement of copyright.

3. Page reference of the book is given at the heading of every power point page for your own further reading & reference. Not every page is discussed, & updated knowledge is sometimes inserted.
4. This book is meant for seasoned Arborists & researchers, not elementary newcomers. The speaker will try to explain from ground zero.

5. The sessions will increase in depth of knowledge as they go along. No single session can represent the whole set of knowledge. Contents are intertwined & there is no short cut to learn it all.

6. Chinese comments are sometimes given in the power point for easy understanding of certain terms & practice.

7. If there is any question during the seminar, please raise your hand. If the speaker can reply it within 1 minute, he’ll do so. If not, he’ll try to answer it during the break. The speaker does not have the answer for everything.

8. Attendance will be counted. Attendance Certificate will show attendance rate.

9. Participants at the last session will bring along an A4 size envelope with postage of HK$3.9 & their FULL NAME & address written on the front, to receive the Attendance Certificate by post later. The same FULL NAME will be written on the Attendance Cert.
