In most cases, anyone wishing to practice professional forestry in Saskatchewan (see exceptions in the Forestry Professions Act) must be a practicing member of the Association of Saskatchewan Forestry Professionals (ASFP). The following paper provides guidance to workers and employers about the type of work that is considered to be the professional practice of forestry.
Individuals who are not practicing members of the ASFP, including Foresters-in-Training and Forest Technologists-in-Training, may be able to practice forestry under the supervision of a Professional Forester, Professional Forest Technologist, or Restricted Member. The following paper describes the deliberate approach that must be taken by members who commit to supervising the practice of professional forestry by a non-practicing member.
