NHLA IS SEARCHING FOR AN EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
We have another student success story to share! Allen Hargrove, graduate of the 195th class, had this to say about his experience:
"I started working in the sawmill industry when I was 25; one year later I began to learn about lumber grading. I attended class #195 of the NHLA, Inspector Training School in Memphis, TN. NHLA was great to me in every phase; they wanted me to be successful, just as much as I wanted it for myself. The knowledge I gained in that 8 weeks will carry me through my career in the hardwood lumber industry. The hands-on training you receive there is second to none. I highly recommend this training to anyone looking to further their career in the hardwood lumber industry, as you will be a very valuable part of your company's success. I work as a Hardwood Lumber Inspector 10 hours a day, 5 days a week, always working on improving my skills. This is the career I want to retire with. I will forever be thankful to my employer, Winston Hardwood Lumber Company and the staff of the NHLA, Inspector Training School for making my dream come true."
