Arborist

An arborist, or (less commonly) arboriculturist, is a professional in the practice of arboriculture, which is the cultivation, management, and study of individual trees, shrubs, vines, and other perennial woody plants. Arborists generally focus on the health and safety of individual plants and trees, rather than managing forests (the domains of Forestry and Silviculture) or harvesting wood. An arborist's scope of work is therefore distinct from that of either a forester or a logger, though the professions share much in common.professional arboriculturecultivationtrees shrubsvinesperennialwoody plantsforests ForestrySilvicultureforesterlogger

Arborists gain qualifications to practice arboriculture in a variety of ways and some arborists are more qualified than others. Experience working safely and effectively in and around trees is essential. Arborists tend to specialize in one or more disciplines of arboriculture, such as diagnosis and treatment, climbing and pruning, cabling and lightning protection, or perhaps consultation and report writing. All these disciplines are related and some arborists are very well experienced in all areas of tree work, but not all arborists have the training or experience to properly practice every discipline. Many arborists choose to pursue formal certification, which is available in some countries and varies somewhat by location. An arborist who holds certification in one or more disciplines may be expected to participate in rigorous continuing education requirements to ensure continuous improvement of skills and techniques.

The income varies depending on who you work for and also whether you own a private business. The arboriculture profession has diverse employment opportunities. Where one starts depends upon attitude, education, and experience. The same opportunity for advancement is available for everyone. With a career in arboriculture, advancement opportunities and potential financial rewards are wide open. Online courses are available for students as well as career centers with great instructors to help you along your way.

Tree service technicians can always get more training, and become more educated in different aspects of tree care and health. They can become supervisors of other technicians, or open their own tree service companies. They may open tree nurseries, gardening shops, or publish articles and write books about tree and woody plant care. They can also go to school and train to work as landscape architects or landscape architectural technicians.

Lumberjack

Logging is the cutting, skidding, on-site processing, and loading of trees or logs onto trucks [1] or skeleton cars.skiddingtreeslogstrucks [1] skeleton cars In forestry, the term logging is sometimes used in a narrow sense concerning the logistics of moving wood from the stump to somewhere outside the forest, usually a sawmill or a lumber yard. However, in common usage, the term may be used to indicate a range of forestry or silviculture activities.forestrysawmilllumber yard There are many different kinds of education that can be required in order to maximize your chances of advancement in the logging industry. Different levels of chainsaw certifications can be obtained. There are also many different schools for logging. There are a lot of chances for advancement in logging as long as you are willing to keep learning and getting different certifications for different jobs within the logging industry. The average annual salary for a lumberjack is $35,000 a year. If a student is interested in logging as a profession I highly recommend attending a career center with a natural resources program. The skills you will learn there will be invaluable to the success of your career. The job is physically demanding but as you get older you will move into foreman positions.

Youth ministry, also commonly referred to as youth group, is an age-specific religious ministry. Faith groups or other religious organizations carry out youth ministry to involve and engage with young people who attend their places of worship, or who live in their community. Christian youth ministry usually encompasses one or more of the following:religious ministry Faithreligious organizations young peopleplaces of worshipcommunityChristian youth ministry encouraging young people (whether they have professed a faith or not) to learn more about a given faith and to become more involved in spiritual lifespiritual life providing open youth clubs or other activities for the common good of the young people, sometimes without an overtly religious agendayouth clubscommon goodreligious As well as organizing events and activities, youth ministry will usually include some form of religious instruction and pastoral oversight of young people.pastoral oversight Education is not always required but Bible college courses are very useful as well as getting experience with internships. Youth Pastors make an average of $35,000 a year. The chances for advancement depend on the church, but sometimes the youth pastor will eventually take over the head pastor position. The long term job outlook also varies on the church but I personally know many youth pastors that will be doing that until they retire.

My goals are to finish high school, and then head to Bible college, where I will study youth ministry. I then hope to get a job as a youth pastor and do a lot of stuff with church camp.
