TRAINING

Get Certified & become part of the Global Seagrass Observing Network.

WHATS INVOLVED

Training is targeted at participants with an education level of year 12 to first year university.

Participants will learn about seagrass biology, seagrass ecology, why seagrass is important and how seagrass can be damaged. Participants are trained to identify local seagrass species, undertake rapid visual assessment methods (% cover), accurately record data, preserve seagrass samples for a herbarium, photograph quadrats and identify presence of dugong feeding trails or other impacts.

Formal assessments are multiple choice questions, in an open format (participants can work in teams and use resources available).

Follow up training (“refresher”) is an important component of the program to ensure that data collection is rigorous. Training aids have been developed in consultation with participants and include manuals, field data books, and photographic reference sheets.

Building capacity

Training builds the capacity of participants to collect information critical for management and protection of important marine resources.

Training components

Training comprises of three components – formal lectures, field training exercise, and laboratory exercise. Training includes hands on experience with standard methodologies for seagrass assessment.

TRAINING REQUIRMENTS

Training is for participants 18 years of age and over. There are prerequisites to attend each level of training.

Seagrass-Watch HQ offers four endorsed training courses:  Introductory, Level 1, Level 2 and Level 2.1. These courses provide participants with the skills and knowledge required to successfully choose an appropriate monitoring strategy, establish monitoring sites and conduct long-term monitoring. Following the completion of a training course, participants will be certified, depending on their level of ability.

All Training courses are reviewed annually and run by Seagrass-Watch HQ.

Please note: There needs to be a minimum of 6 and maximum 15 registered participants, to conduct a Seagrass-Watch trainng event.
