BCWF's
Wetlandkeepers Courses are 2 1/2 day workshops that educate participants about
wetland restoration, rehabilitation and conservation, while enhancing the wetland
site! Upon community request, BCWF brings the Wetlandkeepers Course into an area
to teach wetland mapping, wetland hydrology, amphibian, plant and animal
identification and soil sampling. This is a hands-on fieldwork course that will
provide participants will technical skills to steward their own wetland.
Participants are provided with a copy of the Wetlandkeepers Handbook, which
was designed in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment. The Wetlandkeepers
Handbook provides background information on wetland ecology and laws related to
wetlands, as well as step-by-step instruction on wetland activities. In this first
edition the focus is on 'getting to know' your wetland.
For a hard copy of the Wetlandkeepers Handbook, please contact the Wetlands
Education Program Director. Handbooks are $32.10. To download a free copy,

Course, please click here!

Wetland Education Program Trainers
Wetland Trainers are working around the province to educate aspiring wetland stewards. As active members of the conservation community in their area, the Wetland Education Program Trainers act as mentors in their community, assisting where possible in the conservation of wetlands. The Wetlandkeepers Trainer's Manual, developed through funding from the Vancouver Foundation, is available for all trainers and ensures the delivery of quality Wetlandkeeper training. If you are interested in joining our program please contact the Wetland Education Program Coordinator.
