This program is designed to provide the regulatory community with additional in-depth, in-person learning and networking opportunities. The inaugural event will take place in Toronto on March 31st and will feature CNAR’s highly-rated Fundamentals of Regulation Workshop.

This Micro-Course describes strategies and approaches to selecting specific methods, in a defensible manner and combining information from a range of scales, to complete efficient and effective fish habitat assessments. Participants are assumed to have working knowledge of the standard stream fish habitat assessment methods.

In this MicroCourse, students will develop the ability to make these decisions based on their knowledge of the plant population of interest, the objectives of the study or site investigation, the seasonality of the plant populations, and other factors that help determine the best methods to survey or assess plants. Note: This event is split...

In this immersive course, you’ll dive deep into understanding fish habitat and its critical role across seasons and life stages, with a focus on stream-dwelling salmonids. This course will break down habitat units like pools, riffles, runs, and glides, and show you how these features support thriving fish populations. Explore the essential roles of riparian...

If you do Environmental Impact Assessment in Canada, NatureCounts is a free tool that should be in your toolbox! Birds Canada’s open data platform houses over 250 million bird records from across Canada. Those data are freely and easily available, and a perfect complement to traditional on-the-ground surveys. In this webinar, we will provide an introduction...

Canadian Society of Environmental Biologists will be hosting a webinar on pronghorn management.

This Micro-Course describes ways to assess and interpret collected information to draw inferences on fish use based on habitat in a defensible manner. Participants are assumed to have working knowledge of the standard stream fish habitat assessment methods. This course focusses on interpreting the habitat as: (1) the fish sees it and (2) indicators of...

This MicroCourse will explore how to define your objective, examine the physical and chemical characteristics of lakes and their interactions with the external environment, and discuss site selection and sampling techniques to effectively address your research question. Participants are expected to have a working knowledge of water quality and lake properties.

This comprehensive course is designed to introduce you to the industry’s best practices for erosion and sediment control. From mastering common site isolation techniques to delving into real-world examples, you’ll learn how to assess the effectiveness of sediment and erosion controls with precision.

The Wetland Knowledge Exchange is the official newsletter, webinar series, and social media account of the CCLM Wetland Knowledge Portal (WKP). The Wetland Knowledge Exchange aims to amplify the voice of the WKP to help increase information sharing and foster collaboration amongst diverse stakeholders interested in wetland management, conservation and reclamation. Learn about new Canadian...

This MicroCourse will explore how to define your objective, assess fish distribution in lakes, and select sites and sampling techniques to effectively address your research question. Participants are expected to have a working knowledge of fish sampling techniques and lake properties. Fish Sampling Techniques in Lakes is designed for fisheries professionals working in environments where sampling procedures...

This course appeals to students across educational levels, field technicians, First Nations plant harvesters and technicians, and anyone keen on deepening their understanding of plant gathering and preservation.

This MicroCourse provides essential insights into safety protocols, risk assessment techniques, and actionable strategies to enhance your confidence and readiness, allowing you to focus fully on your research goals while staying safe. Split into two interactive sessions, the course includes a brief homework assignment for students to complete in their local area, reinforcing practical knowledge...

The Fish Habitat Assessment  course is an intensive, ‘hands-on’, online, and field-based two-day review of standard North American fish and fish habitat assessment and evaluation methods. In this course, participants will learn first-hand how to conduct measurements, assessments and evaluations of stream morphology, fish habitat features, substrate, pebble counts, stream impacts and habitat limiting factors.
