One of Landcare Tasmania's key member services is to provide opportunities for training and networking.
Thanks to successful funding applications and generous donations, we are running a series of events and information sessions across the state, helping to empower you and your communities to look after your patch with upskilling and networking opportunities.
We constantly collect feedback on the types of training our members and supporters would be interested in. The workshops below have been developed in response to popular topics and funding opportunities. As event details are finalised, details will be updated and more events added. Members - watch your inbox for the invitations!
Priority invitations are given to local members and those who have registered interest. If places remain, registrations will be opened up to the wider membership and then to non-members.
Events part of our Education program are below in orange . These aim to strengthen ties between schools, TAFE, UTAS, and local Landcarers. Interested schools can register their interest via our Expression of Interest form.
