A large part of my role is keeping track of ongoing projects (e.g. residentials, online workshops, training programmes, to name a few), which can become very complex. This course could be the best insight into how to effectively manage projects year-round, and provide me with suggestions and extensive resources. New teachings could also expand the work BTO Youth does and bring with it new project planning ideas.
WildHub also sounds fantastic! It feels great being a part of an online community and comes with so many benefits and opportunities. Look forward to connecting with many of you!

Hermione Pocock
Tees-Swale Community Engagement Trainee, Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority
As a community engagement trainee I work with underrepresented groups and facilitate them to access the Yorkshire Dales.
I work as a Field Ecologist with the Australian Wildlife Conservancy, a non-profit with the goal of effectively conserving Australia's native species and their habitats. I live and work at Mt Gibson Wildlife Sanctuary, a 131,000+ha nature reserve on Badimia Country in semi-arid south-west Western Australia. Here I help conduct biodiversity monitoring, contribute to applied ecological research and assist with the reintroduction of locally extinct species. Recently, my work has focused on reintroducing the Chuditch (AKA Western Quoll), a spotty marsupial predator, to the sanctuary. My work is primarily in the conservation of threatened mammals, but I also have a keen interest in bird conservation and ecology. Outside my work I enjoy running, birdwatching, baking, wildlife photography, and walks in nature.
I'm Liane, and I am a WildLearning Specialist at WildTeam! I'm looking forward to getting to know you all!
For the last few years, I've been working in Seychelles, focusing on island and marine conservation efforts, particularly coral restoration and turtle nesting monitoring. If you ask me questions about coral, be prepared for me to get very nerdy about it! Prior to that, I was managing a project in Northern Thailand, where I worked closely with a local community to set up ethical elephant experiences in their village.
In my free time, I love running and hiking, and being anywhere in nature. I have also learnt to freedive in the last few years and enjoy doing that when possible. I'm really interested in talking to different people and learning from them and their unique experiences.
