The Trilogy Complete

It was with great excitement that we announced the completion of all three Wood Technology books in June 2020.  This really did mark a new milestone for Wood Theory & Practice; not only did it mean that we have now met the subject specification for the new Junior Cycle but also, it marked the end of a very busy two years for us.

We are very conscious that we now offer a complete solution to the study of Wood Technology for first, second and third year students. As we grow our resources and develop our website into a Learning Management System, we are very much looking forward to the coming academic year.
