This provider offers two (2) approved workshops: Seasonal Dendrology Workshop and Fall Stewardship Workshop, and the Master Ecologist course.

The Seasonal Dendrology Workshop offers a comprehensive exploration of tree identification and their role in ecosystems, tailored for professionals like educators, ecologists, and land managers. It includes seasonal sessions that focus on both lecture and fieldwork, covering tree identification and ecology through winter, spring, summer, and autumn. Topics range from winter tree identification to future impacts of climate change on trees. 

The Stewardship Workshop focuses on invasive plant management and deer management. Designed for land stewards and property owners, it covers invasive species identification, management prioritization, and hands-on training in season-specific techniques for controlling invasive plants. The workshop also emphasizes the impacts of overabundant deer on native and invasive species and includes practical management strategies. Offered in the spring and fall.

The Master Ecologist course is an intensive hands-on program exploring wetlands, freshwater ecosystems, meadows, and forests through expert-led field sessions, practical labs, and online coursework. Designed for educators, land managers, and conservation professionals, it emphasizes ecological principles, conservation, and management strategies.
