Ontario''s forest sector is facing a significant labour shortage. It is recognized that engaging students and recent graduates to promote employment and career opportunities is critical to the long-term viability of the sector ? from forest management planning to operations and lumber processing to research, innovation and manufacturing. On February 16, 2023, students in forestry and forestry-related programs are invited to join employers at Forests Ontario''s annual Student-Employer Engagement (SEED) Session. SEED brings together students, recent graduates, and representatives from organizations and companies within the forest sector in a virtual environment to discuss employment opportunities and in demand skills.
online registration open and can be completed at https://forestsontario.typeform.com/Seed23. We anticipate SEED will run from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm (EST) ? final agenda to be confirmed as we finalize speakers. SEED is a free event!
