Help Build the Next Generation of Woodworking Professionals
The future of the woodworking industry depends on developing the next generation of skilled professionals — and industry involvement is essential to making that happen.
Through the NWB Education Program, manufacturers, suppliers, and industry professionals can help bring meaningful woodworking education to schools across the country.
Whether you support a local school, connect us with educators in your community, or invest in the program's national growth, there is a place for you in this important effort.
Support a Local School
Help schools develop strong woodworking programs by sharing your expertise, providing equipment or materials, offering career exploration opportunities, or building relationships with educators and students.
Connect NWB with a School
Know a school, teacher, or administrator interested in woodworking education? An introduction can be the first step toward bringing the NWB Education Program to a new community. NWB can take it from there.
Invest in National Growth
Support the expansion of the NWB Education Program through financial contributions, in-kind resources, curriculum development, and other strategic partnerships that help us reach more schools and students.

The Wood Industry Association (WIA) helps fuel the NWB Education Program, strengthening our ability to connect education with the needs of the woodworking industry.
But building tomorrow's workforce takes an entire industry working together. Every manufacturer, supplier, and industry professional has an opportunity to contribute — whether through resources, relationships, expertise, or financial support.
Together, we can bring industry-aligned woodworking education to more communities and create meaningful pathways to rewarding careers.
