Discover NRTG training programs that can help in your habitat assessment and restoration efforts of industrial sites, deforested areas, or waterways in your area or territory. Habitat restoration starts with assessment and has a long history of hard-learned lessons; our experts can help you think about your projects with an awareness of what has and has not worked in the past. Restoration is a complex and expensive undertaking with experiences gained in the past informing how to do it now with greater chance of success.

We will discuss of the value of this training and how it may benefit yourself, your organization, or your community. The focus is to assist you in this open house so please bring specific questions you may have regarding Habitat Assessment & Restoration Methods.

NRTG courses will be used to anchor discussions, and we hope to move beyond those to hear some of the restoration challenges individuals and communities face.
