A Unique Training Opportunity
As part of our commitment to fostering the next generation of aspiring conservationists, this year we are offering one individual a free place on fifteen of our online training courses and two of our field courses.
Our courses teach a wide range of ecological skills, mainly plant and habitat survey, but also cover amphibians, mammals and insects. By the end of your training courses, you should have a great insight into ecology in the UK as well as increased confidence in surveying and identification skills.
​
Full details of all of the courses we offer can be found on our Training Courses page.
This training package is normally worth over £1200 and could be yours for free! So what's the catch ....?
​
In return for this fantastic package, we are asking that you produce four informative posts on social media detailing your experience of the training you receive with us. The platform is entirely your choice, but we ask that these are posted throughout the training period and can be reproduced by us in the future. It's as easy as that!
