Online Research

Project details

What we need
  • A compilation of research on a specific topic (e.g. industry best practices, literature review, media contacts, industry trends, etc.) including a list of sources
  • Recommendations on areas for further exploration/research
  • Note: This project is not designed to be used for prospect or grant research
Additional details

I am looking for research on the workforce within the landscape and tree care industry.

What we have in place
  • We have information from employers within the industry that there is a workforce shortage, and I would like to find out specific numbers on the shortage.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,239 , allowing us to put more money and time into the program itself

We started a workforce development program in fall 2018 in partnership with local employers within the landscape and tree care fields. This research could help us spread the message of why this program is important to the industry, as well as to donors, community members and other partner organizations.
