The Skills Enhancement and Training project is a program whose aim is to facilitate an increase in the skill levels of workers in industry to address changed forest management, harvesting procedures and production processes.
The project will enable the industry to achieve greater yields from the forest resource and establish a culture of continual skill development and improvement. This will be achieved by encouraging and providing support and information to potential new industry entrants in order to reduce industry skill shortages. This project is funded by the Department of Education, Science and Training.
