Abstract

Extension specialists are called upon to provide educational opportunities and information to field faculty in order for them to assist citizens in making informed decisions through county programming. North Carolina Extension Forestry conducted an evaluation of programming at the county level to find out if field faculty were getting the support they needed. Results indicate respondents are faced with the pressure of lack of time and lack of knowledge base to cover multiple subject areas. Demand for time and knowledge underscores the need for a strong support system in which specialists need to play an active part to assist field faculty in overcoming programming barriers.
