macharette Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 We are Ecorana Environmental, an eco-travel and environmental education company that specializes in creating and planning applied learning holidays for students, researchers, and eco-tourists alike. The NABC workshop and certification session will be held at our partner facility in Belize, operated by the Toucan Ridge Ecology and Education Society (T.R.E.E.S), a grassroots conservation organization that operates the T.R.E.E.S Field Station which is a small biologist-managed research and education facility nestled in the picturesque Maya Mountains of Belize. About the Training: After four years of successful NABC workshops in Belize, this spring banding workshop is back by popular demand! Over the 5-day workshop, participants will learn the basics of bird banding from certified NABC trainers. Instruction will be primarily field-based in small groups (max. 4 per trainer), while classroom style discussions will review: the history of bird banding, bird banding techniques, Pyle, Bird Topography, Molt, and other pertinent topics. The workshop is tailored for participants with no experience to those with plenty. For those wishing to become certified (see www.nabanding.net for requirements) at the Assistant, Bander, or Trainer level, the session will take place immediately following the workshop. Register: Contact us at registration@ecorana.ca to register. Only 12 spaces for the workshop and 8 spaces for the certification session are available. Register today to reserve your space! Cost*: $850 US/person (5-day workshop** only) $350 US/person (2-day certification session only) $1200 US/person (7-day workshop and certification) Dates: Nov. 4th – 8th (Workshop, arrive Nov. 3rd & depart Nov. 9th) Nov. 9th & 10th (**Certification, arrive Nov. 8th & depart Nov.11th) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sarah R Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 are similar courses being run in 2020? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fern Davies Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Sarah R - please address that question directly to Ecorana Environmental or the North American Banding Council. https://www.facebook.com/NorthAmericanBandingCouncil/ It is unlikely that someone who posted a notice two years ago will return to see if anyone has commented two years later.
