After 8 years of varied tree work experience and once a week study sessions with a great mentor for the last few months, I passed the CA exam. I'm happy

Way to go!! Just remember, you haven't arrived, your journey is just beginning. Always keep learning.

You just never know.
In my case, I could passed the ISA exam 10 years before I chose to take it. Was basically a master-pruner long before taking the test.
Just depends on the person. Either way, the journey seems to always be going somewhere better.
This is truly one of the best professions on the face of planet Earth. And I'm truly glad for each of the folks participating here for having chosen a fine art and science to master.

Thanks all,
yes its all about the trip...right
Part of why I'm happy to be CA is the continued education that you must do. I've basically been doing it anyways, but now its a must and I get gratification or actual acknowledgement for learning.. whatever .. just kinda nice.
This broad field we work in must be the greatest. I feel like I'm always doing what I want to do and not working.. so you can't beat that.
Heres to learning and understanding that its not a bad thing to not know something.. as long as you dont act like you do.

Good onya!
It's a good general grounding in quite a lot of aspects of tree care and tree work.
For me, it was the introduction to aspects of tree care that I hadn't thought much about before, and got me interested in that made a difference. And that led to yet new things.
Lifelong learners are constantly branching out. Pun intended.

Nice that you see this. New CAs who think they know it all are really aggravating,,,and dangerous!
