Colorado Arborists and Lawn Care Professionals (CALCP) invites industry professionals, educators, researchers, regulators, manufacturers and other subject-matter experts to submit presentation proposals for the 39th Annual Spring Training Conference, March 2–3, 2027.

The Spring Training Conference brings together professionals from Colorado’s arboriculture, lawn care, plant health care, pest management and broader green industries for two days of education, professional development and industry connection.

We are seeking practical, relevant and technically sound educational sessions that give attendees information they can apply in the field, with their teams and within their businesses.

Special consideration will be given to sessions that may qualify for Colorado Department of Agriculture (CDA) pesticide applicator continuing education credit and/or International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Continuing Education Units (CEUs).

WHO SHOULD SUBMIT?

You do not need to be a professional speaker to submit a proposal.

CALCP welcomes submissions from:

• Arborists and tree care professionals
• Lawn and landscape professionals
• Plant health care professionals
• Pesticide and pest management specialists
• Researchers and university/Extension professionals
• Municipal and government professionals
• Equipment, technology and product specialists
• Business owners and industry leaders
• Safety and workforce professionals
• Other experts with knowledge relevant to Colorado’s green industry

SESSION FORMAT

CALCP is primarily seeking 60-minute educational presentations, including time for attendee questions.

Core credit CDA courses that qualify for one credit per 30 minute sessions may be ran concurrently, but please submit one session per proposal.

Sessions should be educational in nature and should not primarily promote a company, product or service. Relevant products, technologies and real-world examples may be incorporated when they support the educational objectives of the presentation.
