Forestry Technology

British Columbia’s vast softwood forest empire, one of the world’s largest, supplied
a net value of $900,000,000 in forest products last year. The forest industries are
growing rapidly. In consequence, there is a demand for technicians to serve this
thriving development. Employment opportunities are available in a variety of cate-
gories: in logging (cutting boundaries, marking timber, surveying and constructing
roads): in cruising for inventory and logging development: in forest protection and
reforestation. Technicians are also employed by governments for such tasks as
scaling, research, inspection and so on.
