Career Profiles

Introduction

Welcome to the Career Profiles section of careersinwood.ca where we feature interviews with individuals who work in the advanced wood processing sector. The Career Profiles section was created in response to questions we have received asking about typical careers in the sector. For example, "What types of jobs are available?" and "What are the education requirements?".
