Template Licence Agreement. Forest Owners / Managers can download the template and modify it to meet their specific requirements. The template has been reviewed by Kensington Swan to meet the requirements of relevant New Zealand law.

Background:

There are issues around whether to allow experiential training on an active forest work site and how to determine the various accountabilities i.e. who is responsible for the trainees, and who will be held accountable if serious harm befalls a trainee.

The forest industry needs new entrants coming into forestry and new entrants must be trained, but forest owners / managers don't need the risk, or the accompanying potential judicial penalty.

Generally, because ‘experiential training’ is not core business, the management of training providers may suffer from oversights. Because in forest experiential training doesn't occur day in day out, the particulars of agreements etc. are often unintentionally missed out. The FOA Study Licence Agreement gives a basis to clearly assign responsibilities and requirements
