In order to provide our logging force with the latest training while maintaining the safety of our communities, NCFA, in coordination with the North Carolina Sustainable Forestry Initiative – State Implementation Committee is excited to offer our ProLoggers the opportunity to view our Module 25 course online!
The NCFA’s ProLogger program consists of a continuing education element that requires ProLoggers to participate in one three-hour course on an annual basis. This course, called a module, is a uniform production that is distributed throughout the state to participating companies and foresters interested in helping ProLoggers keep their status in the program. The modules are developed through input from the North Carolina SFI State Implementation Committee, the NCFA’s Safety, Logging and Transportation Committee, Forestry Mutual Insurance Company, North Carolina Department of Labor, North Carolina Highway Patrol (Division of Motor Carriers) and the North Carolina Forest Service.
