How to advance forestry training with technology
Speaker: Julien Richer-Lanciault, product manager, CM Labs For years, the forest industry has been facing a labour shortage. That labour shortage is becoming more acute as more older workers retire and fewer younger workers show an interest in logging. Simulation training can help address this issue. CM Labs’ forestry and construction product manager Julien Richer-Lanciault presents a session detailing how new advancements in simulation-based training can help the forestry and logging industry respond to the skills gap and meet the needs of a changing market.
