As part of this course, students will work directly with more than 10 industry professionals to gain the knowledge, skills, and experience needed to safely fell a tree. Through guided field training they will learn how to safely cut down, delimb, and buck a tree while earning an industry-recognized certificate and college credit. Specifically, students will learn directional felling and chainsaw safety while earning 1 credit in FOR 396 from UWSP and tree felling certification from UWSP and Husqvarna. Some online coursework will need to be completed during the four weeks leading to arrival at Treehaven. This is a change from previous years with the aim of providing more time in the woods handling a chainsaw. Information about opportunities in 2027 will be coming soon.<\/span><\/p><\/div><div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"hcard-mediacell\"><div class=\"iframe-container\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EGgQ9lxoHVY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"hslider-buttoncontainer\"><button class=\"hsliderBack horizontal-sliderbutton\" aria-label=\"previous slide\">\u276e<\/button><div class=\"single-card-nav\"><\/div><button class=\"hsliderForward horizontal-sliderbutton\" aria-label=\"next slide\">\u276f<\/button><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"uwsp-accordion blockspacetop blockspacebottom\"><div class=\"accordion\" id=\"\"><div class=\"panelcontainer nofirst\">\n<details class=\"wp-block-create-block-uwsp-accordion-section\"><summary class=\"accordion-heading\">Scholarship Information<\/summary><div class=\"accordion-content\">\n<p>High school students are eligible to apply for a scholarship\u200b to cover registration fees for\u200b this UW-Stevens Point Forestry course.
