Northumberland College has just launched a new Level 3 Land and Wildlife Management course, for which LANSS was consulted during the design process.
Tracey Jackson, LANSS Manager, commented,
"The LANSS were pleased to be consulted on the preferred modules for the Land and Wildlife Management Advanced Technical Diploma/Extended Diploma. It is excellent news that the College are going to be adding this course to their range of training opportunities. There is a pressing need for knowledge and skills development in the land and nature sectors, as we see a focus in government policy on enhancing the environment, there will be many opportunities in this sector going forward."
Pursue your passion for the environment and conservation with a comprehensive programme designed to equip you with the knowledge and practical skills essential for a career in countryside management. This course offers a blend of theoretical understanding and hands-on experience, focusing on the diverse habitats, species, and sector-specific issues prevalent in the Northumberland region.
Engage in practical lessons that cover habitat management, species conservation, and sustainable land use, all tailored to the unique ecological landscape of Northumberland. By collaborating with local conservation organisations and participating in fieldwork, you'll gain invaluable insights and real-world experience, preparing you for roles such as countryside ranger, conservation officer, or environmental consultant. This qualification also serves as a solid foundation for further studies in environmental science or related disciplines, ensuring you're well-prepared to make a meaningful impact in preserving and enhancing our natural heritage.
