More About the Policy Review Seminar
The seminar is structured as four themed modules, grouping related topics for a more integrated approach: The Professions and Professional Reliance; Forest Land Base – Supply, Allocation and Revenue; Resource Planning and Practices; and Forest Resource Initiatives and Practice Accountability. These topics include the RFT aspects of practice.

It is designed for both members and non-members wanting an overview of ABCFP legislation and bylaws, related roles of other resource professions, professional practice issues and BC's current forest legislation and policies.

Forest Legislation and Policy Reference Guide
Each year, a forest legislation and policy reference guide is written/updated by forest management experts. This guide summarizes important and relevant forest policies that affect the practice of forestry in BC and can be used as a reference for those studying to write the ABCFP registration exams.
