A skilled forestry workforce
Sustainable, diverse and growing
The Forestry Sector Council is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to developing a skilled and professional workforce for the forestry industry in Nova Scotia. We collaborate with our partners to identify and solve labour challenge, advance innovation in human resources and build capacity in our sector.
Our strategic priorities:

Our Conference | Sector Events Calendar | Employee Retention
With only five weeks to go until our Symposium there is something for everyone! An amazing lineup of presenters with a focus on workforce development and innovation.
High Production Forest Zone in Place
The Province has dedicated a high production forest zone, completing its triad model of ecological forestry. This will support the economy while ensuring that 90 per cent of Crown land is managed with biodiversity as the top priority.
Help us, Help you
Our annual survey helps us keep vital labour market information current, which in turn informs our work in supporting employers.
