Lumber Quality Institute Workshops Announced
Lumber Quality Institute and Terry Brown announced two lumber quality-related workshops will be offered in Atlanta, Ga. for the sawmill industry.
The Lumber Quality and Process Control Workshop will be held May 5-6, and the Lumber Quality Leadership Workshop is scheduled May 7-8. Both sessions will be at the Embassy Suites, Perimeter Center Hotel in north Atlanta.
These programs have earned the reputation for providing practical, mill-tested information that results in millions of dollars of added mill revenue each year. Managers look to them as effective tools for educating supervisors from all areas of the sawmill.
