* What Is a Master Arborist?

Oct 06, 2020

A Board Certified Master Arborist (BCMA) is the highest designation an arborist can achieve professionally. Straight from the ISA’s mouth:

To sit for the exam, individuals must be a Certified Arborist in good standing and have obtained other prerequisites or “points” defined by ISA. A minimum of eight points is required, obtained through measurable experience, formal education, related credentials, or professional experience. The computer-based exam covers science, practice, and management.

I know that BCMAs are quite rare but have had a hard time digging up reliable statistics. One website I found said that there are only 256 BCMAs in the entire United States as opposed to 20,859 Certified Arborists (these statistics are from April 2009). In other words, a little over 1% of all Certified Arborists are Master Arborists. Wow. That is indeed impressive.

Why Hire an Arborist?

Arborists specialize in the care of individual trees. They are knowledgeable about the needs of trees and are trained and equipped to provide proper care. Hiring an arborist is a decision that should not be taken lightly. Proper tree care is an investment that can lead to substantial returns. Well-cared-for trees are attractive and can add considerable value to your property. Poorly maintained trees can be a significant liability. Pruning or removing trees, especially large trees, can be dangerous work. Tree work should be done only by those trained and equipped to work safely in trees.

What is a Certified Arborist?

An arborist by definition is an individual who is trained in the art and science of planting, caring for, and maintaining individual trees. ISA arborist certification is a nongovernmental, voluntary process by which individuals can document their base of knowledge. Certified Arborists are individuals who have achieved a level of knowledge in the art and science of tree care through experience and bypassing a comprehensive examination developed by some of the nation’s leading experts on tree care.

Services an Arborist can Provide

  • Pruning: An arborist can determine the type of pruning necessary to maintain or improve the health, appearance, and safety of trees.
  • Tree Removal: Although tree removal is a last resort, there are circumstances when it is necessary. An arborist can help decide whether a tree should be removed.
  • Emergency Tree Care: An arborist can assist in performing emergency tree care in a safe manner while reducing further risk of damage to property.
  • Planting: Some arborists plant trees and most can recommend species that are appropriate for a particular location.
  • Plant Health Care: Preventive maintenance helps keep trees in good health while reducing any insect, disease, or site problems.
  • Many other services: Consulting services, tree risk assessment, cabling, and bracing trees, etc.
