TIMBER TRAINING
VICTORIA
Apply Wood and Timber Product Knowledge training In conjunction with Timber Training Creswick, MGA TMA hosted the Apply Wood and Timber Product Knowledge training over two days in early July. During the first day, the course participants visited MGA TMA’s office to cover Timber Product Knowledge theory.. Day 2 took the group off to Geelong and Colac on a field trip where they visited Barwon Timber’s Bar Truss facility and AKD’s two Colac locations, including their green mill. This allowed everyone to put theory into practice and see the processes that these companies follow. Those that attended were actively engaged and asked some great
questions of both the trainer and Barwon Timber and AKD staff. It was great to finally hold this course as it was in the pipeline for quite some time. The feedback from those that attended has been so positive it shows that it was worth the wait! We are hoping that our next Apply Wood and Timber Product Knowledge event will happen again soon.
