Do you need to come to grips with the FSC Controlled Wood due diligence standard (FSC-STD-40-005)? In our Controlled Wood Webinar, our experts provide essential know-how that builds your capacity for identifying and managing risk to avoid sourcing wood from FSC’s ‘Unacceptable sources’ or auditing the Due Diligence System in your company or the suppliers to meet the FSC certification requirements. Besides the international FSC Controlled Wood framework, you will be provided with specific topics for the US and Canada sourcing areas.
This webinar is for you whether you are overseeing the implementation of the FSC Controlled Wood standard, auditing the Due Diligence System, or you simply wish to know more about FSC Controlled Wood certification and how Controlled Wood is sourced from the US or Canada.
This webinar will be provided by Preferred by Nature’s Controlled Wood experts and auditors in the English language. Please ensure that your language skills allow you to engage in presentations and discussions fully.
