The Fundamentals of Workforce Development in Forestry
This virtual event is sponsored by Southern Regional Extension Forestry. Having an available workforce is integral to creating new forestry markets. Successful forestry markets require loggers, forestry technicians, truck drivers, and other employees with similar skills to those in other manufacturing industries. Rebecca Hunt will share her research into these forestry challenges and identify solutions. Additionally, Stephanie Fuller will provide her insights as a director of a non-profit organization that focuses on developing essential forestry workers. This is the third webinar in a four-part series on Wood-based Economic Development.
