Answers to Inspectors’ Most Frequently Asked Questions

Q: As an inspector, how often do I need to complete an inspection or take a refresher training course to stay active? 

A: After completing the initial 4-hour classroom Qualified ATFS Inspector training course, an inspector must complete at least one inspection or take a refresher course (such as the online refresher modules available on the ATFS Database website) every two years for your credentials to remain active. This rolling renewal process will then extend the Inspector’s credentials for another two years upon completion of each inspection until the implementation of the revised ATFS Standards of Sustainability in 2020. Thus, an Inspector’s credentials will not extend beyond March 15, 2020.

We also post upcoming in-person training opportunities provided by volunteer Facilitators at the State Tree Farm Program Level on our website.
