FSC Chain of Custody Expert Course
Learn to read the mind of your FSC auditor - or become one yourself!
Our intensive FSC Expert trainings will equip you with the mindset and knowledge of an FSC auditor. Join our ASI accredited FSC CoC course to fulfill formal FSC Chain of Custody auditor training requirements whilst gaining useful insight into the FSC CoC system!
Our FSC Expert Course consists of two separate courses, one for Forest Management (FM) and one for Chain of Custody (CoC) certification. This registration is for the FSC CoC course, which consists of an online part followed by three-day intense classroom training, covering the FSC standards and systems for Chain of Custody and Controlled Wood certification.
The online part of the course, comprised of five different modules which should be completed before coming to the classroom training*, requires approximately two to three days for completion. This part of the course is available immediately, even for non-registered participants.
Our standard classroom agenda can be found here. The FSC CoC Expert course is conducted in Chinese language. Please ensure that your language skills will allow you to fully engage in presentations, group exercises, discussions and examinations.
