Review

I have recently completed the online program of Marine and Wildlife intro to conservation. I have a background in this area and so I wanted to have a bit of a refresher during this period of quiet time during the pandemic. I thoroughly enjoyed this week long course consisting of a few hours each day working through the modules. It gave a comprehensive understanding of marine and wildlife conservation from the basic issue of what it is and the "textbook" ways of how we can conserve wildlife, as well as more behind the scene issues of how conservation is funded, who interacts with each other during conservation and the challenges that presents in itself, and what kind of jobs there are within the world of conservation. Each module throughout the online course used multiple real-world examples and we had the opportunity to have discussions on each challenge with our 'online' class mates which I really enjoyed. What I really thought was special about this online course was the amount of realness it had, I felt like I wasn't just reading through textbook examples but actually living through what it is actually like to be a conservationist, plus it gave me so much insight and inspiration into what kind of jobs there are in this hugely diverse career path.

Would you recommend this program?
