Relative to many other lines of work, only a small percentage of the U.S. workforce is employed today in the business of logging. Logging is a traditional and essential part of the lives of many Alabamians. To those who do make their living in the woods, the satisfaction of hard work in an outdoors environment is appealing and satisfying. However, over the years, the life of a logger has become more complex. As always, today's logger must be knowledgeable of the woods and how to most efficiently harvest timber. But now he must also be a good businessperson, safety manager and operations planner, and knowledgeable of current forestry practices. A variety of problems and challenges can overwhelm many loggers. One approach to addressing these problems is the Professional Logging Manager (PLM) Course. Developed by educators from Auburn University, School of Forestry and Alabama Cooperative Extension System this 3-day course is offered to loggers over a 3-week period. Sponsors:
