Forestry Correspondence Course
Dr. Bob Tjaden and Nancy Stewart are the PIs. This course is designed for individuals wishing to increase their understanding of forests and forest management. It is offered both in a traditional hard copy correspondence course format as well as electronically via the web. Specifically, the course targets Maryland forest landowners and other citizens with an interest in the principles and practices of forestry. There are no prerequisites; however, owning or having access to a forest is necessary to complete the framework of the required management plan. The course is divided into six units, with each unit containing several lessons. As a review, there is a quiz containing several questions at the end of each lesson. There are also assignments following most lessons. Resource information is located in the appendices.
