Sawmill Worker Credentialing Program
Overview
The Sawmill Worker Certificate Program was developed to prepare future workers for employment in one of the South’s largest industries. Employment opportunities in lumber manufacturing facilities vary from entry-level workers, equipment operators, and office administrators to mill managers. This credential aims to give students an introduction to Sawmilling in Alabama and guide them along the career path to meaningful, local careers.
This curriculum has been developed specifically for application across the South. Although many examples from Alabama are used, similar forests, management techniques, harvesting operations and mill operations are found throughout the Southeast.
