"I have worked in three different states as a Forester and am very well versed in the licensing and requirements for this particular state. I have all licensing required to legally work in South Carolina, North Carolina, and West Virginia. I have brought all of the necessary documentation with me, and you are more than welcome to take copies for my file."

Some states require licensure to legally operate as a forester. These state enforced laws include licensing and registration statutes, according to the Society of American Foresters. Depending on your region, you may or may not need to have additional licensing on top of your formal education. Your answer should be short and straightforward - a yes or no! If you are not permitted, be sure to express your willingness to comply. If you are not sure of the exact requirements in your state, then visit the SAF website where you can find the correct contact information for each state board.
