The campaign invites timber salespeople and others in the timber supply chain and the design and build industry to “fill your knowledge gap” and will run across print, online and outdoor advertising until October.

The purpose of the campaign is to increase awareness of the training platform and increase enrolments in the WoodSolutions Campus.

The online campus has recently been given an updated look, and put on a new platform, with filters added to offer an improved user experience.

WoodSolutions Campus is a collaboration between FWPA and the University of Tasmania’s Centre for Sustainable Architecture with Wood that aims to provide available-on-demand timber education and skills development opportunities.

WoodSolutions Campus knowledge certificates can earn participants credit in the University of Tasmania’s Graduate Certificate in Timber (Processing and building).

There are many subject areas available including mid-rise timber construction, building regulations, timber inspection, managing moisture, designing for durability, environmental characteristics and more.
