The "Game of Logging ''rr_ is a private sector logging skills provider LOGGING FIRMS may need to rethink education and training as strategic investments that contribute as much or more than buying equipment. Training is The Sustainable Forestry Initiative State not a fringe benefit to cut back when the market Implementation Committee in MI helped fund takes a downturn. increased logger education through university and association partnerships INDUSTRY might well give up its illusion of control over logging contractors and welcome them as The Certified Logging Professional program in Maine is dependent on subscriber fees for much of the program costs partners whose success in logger education contributes to the success of the entire forest industry sector. A number of logger training program participants are ASSOCIATIONS at the state and national level might receiving lower insurance rates as a result of recognize they are not expert in education and training activities in ME, MN, NC, and elsewhere, training and need to cooperate with universities, colleges, and various training providers to serve Grants from the Tennessee Valley Authority helped their members.
