In line with efforts to position Singapore as a regional landscape knowledge hub, CUGE signed a Memorandum of Collaboration (MOC) with the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) in Hawaii on July 2007, during ISA's 83rd Annual Conference & Trade Show.

The MOC will enable CUGE to leverage on ISA's comprehensive training and certification programmes to strengthen our local tree care standards. The partnership will also allow our Garden City practitioners to benchmark its technical expertise with leading practices globally. Separately, the newly-formed Singapore Society of Arboriculture (SAS) also concluded a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with ISA at the same event.
