SUMMARY:Industry Consultation – Trade Designation
DESCRIPTION:Industry Consultation – Trade Designation \nAs you may know\, for the past year a team of sector representatives have worked to explore trade designation for Forestry Equipment Operator – Harvester and Forwarder in Nova Scotia. \nThe designation of a trade is voluntary and only works with support from industry employers and operators themselves. It is key at this stage to share information on what trade designation means\, and the many opportunities it brings to the profession. \nThis is the first session of several engagements that will take place across the province to get broad industry input and share the next steps in the process. \nTo provide your input\, especially if you are a Harvester or Forwarder operator or contractor\, you’re invited to come and learn more—and share your thoughts. \nPlease join us on June 13th at 7 pm at the Inn on Prince in Truro\, NS. Optional dinner and networking before the session at 5:30 pm (dinner cost $48+HST). \nRegistration is required Register now \nFor more information on skilled trades in Nova Scotia please visit www.nsapprenticeship.ca

SUMMARY:Women in Forestry Virtual Summit
DESCRIPTION:Women represented just 17 per cent of the forestry labour force in 2016 – but representation is gradually increasing as key industry players lead the change on gender equity.
