We both can agree, protecting the environment is in our nature. We love sharing that with you! With our campus nestled in Ontario between the largest freshwater lakes in the world and vast diverse forests, the sustainable management of our diverse ecosystem is a big deal.

Through the Natural Environment Technician – Conservation and Management program, you’ll learn to monitor and manage natural resources. Gain career-essential field skills and techniques used to protect our forests, marine ecosystems and land among our region’s resource-based economy.

Plus, through a new partnership with the regional conversation authority, we’ve expanded our outdoor classroom adding more diverse lands to research and apply real-world natural resource management concepts.

Get lost in the program’s practical field training as you navigate and the rugged landscapes of Northern Ontario using the latest mapping tools, canoes, boats, ATV’s and snowmobiles.

This two-year program offers a balance of classwork, field study and placements for a well-rounded education.

And have we told you about the Two Plus Two Pathway to Degree option with Algoma University? Students can join us for two years and will only need two more with our partnering University to earn a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science.

You’re not afraid to get a little dirty on the job. And we like that about you!
