The Global Institute offers week-long courses that bring the latest thinking on sustainable forestry management to working professionals. Executive level courses are offered for management professionals with no background in forestry whose work requires an understanding of forestry, as well as for those with forestry background, and a Forest Stand Dynamics course for forestry practitioners.
