Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (NYSE:LPX) is one of Warren Buffett’s 10 stock picks with the strongest upside potential. On October 22, Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (NYSE:LPX) announced its new partnership with the First Nations Forestry Council and the continuation of its collaboration with the Forest Workforce Training Institute’s ForestryWorks program.

The partnership with both institutions will help in developing the next generation of forestry professionals. Louisiana-Pacific will assist in promoting advanced sustainable forest management across North America. LPX’s support for these programs reflects its responsible forest stewardship and the long-term support for wood-based materials in building practices.

“Programs like ForestryWorks and First Nations Forestry Council help ensure forests remain healthy and productive while supporting the future of sustainable forestry. By investing in tomorrow’s workforce, we’re also investing in the continued success of renewable, high-performance building solutions,” said LPX Chair and CEO Brad Southern.

Back in 2018, ForestryWorks introduced the educational program with LPX’s direct involvement. The institution continues to offer education, career awareness, and hands-on training for a professional path in forestry. Through this new collaboration, LPX will fund scholarships for Indigenous students in the Indigenous Forestry Trades Program, providing mentorship from industry experts and classroom learning with a paid practicum.

Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (NYSE:LPX) offers building solutions for applications in new home construction, repair and remodeling, and outdoor structure markets. The company operates under the LP Building Solutions brand name and serves three segments: Siding, OSB, and LP South America (LPSA).
