SUMMARY:Lunch 'n' Learn A Multi-disciplinary Approach to Sustainable ESC from Transportation Construction Activities
DESCRIPTION:A multi-disciplinary approach to ESC during construction is key to achieving a sustainable and resilient transportation right-of-way. Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) will present their methods of managing construction stormwater pollution and examine how today’s practices can significantly influence tomorrow’s roadside environment. Participants will learn about challenges and lessons learned from early design through physical completion and how effective and proactive ESC can make (or break) a sustainable right-of-way. Presented by ESCABC.

SUMMARY:Wetland Classification: An introduction
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Columbia Mountains Institute of Applied Ecology\, this course will introduce students to the BC Classification system of wetlands and the Canadian Wetland Classification System\, providing them with an overview of how to classify and delineate wetlands and the differences between using these systems. The course will start with a classroom session learning how to classify wetlands using the physical and biological characteristics (e.g.\, hydric soils\, hydric plant indicators\, and hydrology). These field parameters will be applied to protocols including the Canadian National Wetland Inventory that can be used in the field to describe\, classify\, and delineate wetlands. The course will include 3-4 field site visits around the Revelstoke area to local wetlands to practice classification and delineation processes using site forms and the Wetlands of British Columbia (LMH 52) guidebook. Functional wetland assessments (including the Wetland Ecosystem Services Protocol) and condition assessments will also be briefly discussed.

SUMMARY:Advanced Electrofishing – Online
DESCRIPTION:Backpack electrofishing is one of the most commonly used fish capture techniques in freshwater\, yet to be effective it must be done with strategy and care. The standard certification programs\, while necessary and essential\, focus on the safety aspects and how to conduct this form of fish sampling in a safe manner. Left out\, however\, are strategies and tactics to actually capture the wild fish in a stream. To assist practitioners in capturing more fish when doing this work\, NRTG’s Advanced Electrofishing MicroCourse provides students with lessons learned over decades on how to effectively capture fish using this tool.

SUMMARY:Field Soil Description & Classification Course
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Columbian Mountains Institute of Applied Ecology\, this course will cover procedures for observing\, measuring\, and describing soils in the field. The goal is to produce consistent data for soil inventory\, mapping and classification using techniques that improve the consistency of determining soil properties in the field. Students will gain experience with describing and classifying forest and wetland soils in the Revelstoke area using soil horizons and properties measured in the field. Students will discuss how soil data collected in the field can inform soil management practices relating to conservation\, agriculture\, forestry\, mining\, and oil & gas activities.

SUMMARY:New Perspectives on Mine Closure
DESCRIPTION:Mine closure is an issue of growing importance for mining companies\, the communities that host operations\, Indigenous peoples\, and governments with regulatory oversight of closure planning. In the coming years\, the world’s top miners are expected to spend over $50 billion (USD) closing mines and managing legacy sites. For many stakeholders and rightsholders\, there is a growing expectation that successful closure plans will go beyond remediation and short-term technical solutions to consider the complex socio-economic aspects of closure. Best practice planning is now expected to include measures that support a just transition for workers\, communities\, and governments as the jobs\, taxes\, royalties\, and philanthropic investments associated with producing mines diminish and then disappear. In this course presented by EGBC in Partnership with BRIMM Mining Education at UBC\, participants will examine the social and environmental dimensions of mine closure.

SUMMARY:Understanding Statistics and Decision-Making for Natural Resource Managers
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Columbia Mountains Institute of Applied Ecology\, this online eight-day online course with Joe Thorley is for natural resource managers who have to interpret the results of statistical analyses and make decisions about how much data to collect and which management actions to undertake. The course focuses on the fundamentals of uncertainty\, modeling\, effect sizes\, decision theory and the value of information. It does not require a statistical background and doesn’t involve any modeling although different types of results are presented and discussed.
