Skills-Based Opportunities With Our Partners

Skills-based professions need employees with an understanding of how specific job functions operate. We partner with other entities that support our mission to help early career members of the workforce prepare for jobs within our agency.  

These jobs are often physical, hands-on, and require service skills. 

ForestryWorks® is a collaborative effort between the Forest Workforce Training Institute and forest industry partners to develop a pipeline of qualified workers for the nation’s forestry and forest products manufacturing industries. They educate students, parents, and teachers about career opportunities in the forest industry while providing pathways for students and job seekers to start their future careers in the industry.
