A forester is a uniquely qualified professional who cares for trees and forests.  Foresters go to college to learn the art and practice of forestry; through comprehensive coursework and practical field experience, they acquire the knowledge, skills, and abilities to practice their profession.  Foresters enjoy spending time outdoors and frequently get to do so in their day-to-day work.  But foresters are also comfortable working in a laboratory or classroom, sitting at a computer, and talking with local communities about their needs and responses to contemporary forestry issues. - Society of American Foresters

In Arkansas, “any person using in connection with the person’s name or otherwise assuming, using, or advertising any title or description tending to convey the impression that the person is a forester engaged in the practice of forestry on private lands shall be registered” [AR Code 17-31-301 (a)].
