Ecological survey techniques

Secure the future of our natural world’s tomorrow by surveying wildlife today.

Develop the knowledge and practical skills needed to survey and protect the natural world through our short and part-time courses in ecological survey techniques. Designed for flexible, tutor-led online study, these courses focus on building applied expertise in wildlife surveying and environmental monitoring.

Whether you are updating your professional skills, gaining academic credit, or working towards a recognised qualification, you will learn in small groups led by experienced practitioners. Courses include surveying a range of species and habitats, including vegetation, mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates.

Through a combination of individual short modules and longer part-time study, you can tailor your learning to your goals. You may choose to take standalone courses or combine modules towards the Postgraduate Certificate in Ecological Survey Techniques, while also developing competencies that support applications for Chartered Status.

Join a community of learners committed to understanding and safeguarding biodiversity through practical, field-based knowledge.
