Gottstein Understanding Forest Science Queensland course

Thursday 27 Jun 2024

 
Places are still available and an enriching week of learning and networking is on the cards at the upcoming Gottstein Understanding Forest Science course, which kicks off on 28th July 2024 at Mooloolaba, in south-east Queensland.

“By far the best professional development I have done, during many years in the sector, was the bottom line from not one but two participants of the last course held at Coffs Harbour,” said Helen Murray, course director for The Gottstein Trust.

This year is the first time the course has been offered in Queensland.

“We especially encourage all Queensland and northern NSW industry people and associates to take advantage while it’s on their door-step,” said Suzette Weeding, chair of The Gottstein Trust, who will share her extensive experience in a session on forest biodiversity. “There’s no doubt that participants from elsewhere are in for a great experience, seeing the nuances of forests, plantations and forest management at the various sites on the field trips.

“We’re delighted that the Forest Research Institute at the University of the Sunshine Coast is supporting program delivery for the first time,” said Ms Weeding.

There is still time to book and intending participants are encouraged not to delay locking in their place.

Two days of Field trips enable participants get to see a diverse set of industry activities and sites; including a tour of a significant tree nursery, a spotted gum genetics research site, major softwood plantations and a hardwood production site, among other things. 

Further details can be found on the Gottstein Trust website.
