The Sorrento Training Centre is a prime location for your training needs. Reasonably priced accommodations are located within 5 minutes of the Centre resulting in reduced overall training costs. The field sites are also within close proximity – yielding less travel time and more instruction time to maximize your learning experience.
Because of the mild climate, training can be scheduled earlier in the year to assist with field-based employment. The field sites are selected to cover a broad range of silviculture issues, addressing needs of participants from all regions of the province.
