Can someone recommend a climbers training
school that I can send an employee to, to
learn how to begin to climb?

Near your 'hood are Clemson and Western Carolina. If they have a strong back, weak mind and low pay expectations they can tutor here near Raleigh NC.

Seriously ISA and NAA (join!) have videos that are supposed to be pretty good.

Try ACRT's programs.Call Lois at 1-800-622-2562 tell her I recommended their programs.I have attended several of their training programs and can attest to their quality and coverage.Excellent staff and materials.They also offer training through Job Corps for 16-24 yr olds.These students are an excellent opportunity for both large and small tree services.While students are on "work base learning" (after training through ACRT)at your company their wormens comp is covered by Job Corps(for several months)!!This is a "win-win" situation!!
