The future of the NZ Diploma in Forest ManagementFriday 14 Mar 2025
An industry working group has been set up to help guide the future direction of the Diploma in Forest Management program. This will ensure we help find a new provider to run the program, and develop a new and improved curriculum with more video content and block courses to make the course easier for people to attend who are working or have families. The NZ Diploma in Forest Management has a rich history, originating from the NZ Forest Service. A former qualification, the NZ Forest Ranger Certificate, was delivered at the Forest Training Centre (FTC), which was then located on the Forest Research Institute (FRI) campus—now Scion, a Crown Research Institute. Following the dissolution of the NZ Forest Service in 1987, the NZ Certificate in Forestry (NZCF) was transferred to Waiariki Polytechnic from the Ministry of Forestry (MOF). Over time, it evolved into the National Diploma in Forest Management and later the NZ Diploma in Forest Management (Level 6), a two-year, full-time qualification. In response to the need for a new provider, the NZ Forest Owners Association (NZFOA) and an industry working group have been actively exploring options for the qualification’s future. We are seeking industry feedback on improvements and changes to the program.
