Upcoming webinars include

• 14th October – Chain of Custody Program for Fabricators will explore the importance of timber certification for fabricators with EPWAA’s Dave Gover
• 21st October – Understanding the Australian Sawn Timber Market is an extremely important topic. Fabricators know how their own wood supply works, but do they understand the total market and where the opportunities lie? This webinar includes a presentation from Tim Woods of IndustryEdge and a discussion on how to get – and use – the best market intelligence.
• 28th October – Is Your Timber Fit For Purpose will feature EWPAA’s Andy McNaught, who will outline what you should look for in branding to comply with standards, what certification actually means and how it can be misused and how structural property claims need to be made to comply with AS/NSS4357.
