Post Body

I’m currently a member of the California Conservation Corps who is on a grade work/natural resources crew.

I have a degree in something unrelated and I joined the CCC to get experience before trying to get a job as a forestry aide or forestry technician or go to graduate school for forestry.

I have a utility vegetation management and pre-inspection certification. Would it be worth it to get an SAF cert to get a job as a forestry technician?

Would any of you guys recommend it or is it not worth the time/money. Especially to be a technician.

Thank you
