2024-2025 Forest Vegetation Simulator Training Schedule

While we had anticipated that our training sessions for the upcoming fiscal year would be in person sessions, the budget situation necessitates that we transition to delivering training in a virtual format in FY25.  We understand that for most students in person training is a preferred option, however for now we will shift to self-paced recorded modules. These modules cover the same curriculum as our in person training sessions. If students have question or problems as they walk through the modules they can contact the FVS Helpdesk.
