Association of BC Forest Professionals
With more than 5,300 Registered Professional Foresters and Registered Forest Technologists, we regulate the largest group of forestry professionals in Canada.
The Association of BC Forest Professionals is responsible for registering and regulating British Columbia's professional foresters and forest technologists.
Here in BC, the practice of professional forestry has been regulated since 1947 when foresters first agreed to help protect the public's interest in the province's forests in return for the exclusive right to practise forestry.
Today, we are the largest professional forestry association in Canada and the first to include forest technologists.
