Wetland Education and Training Workshops

Sydney Olympic Park offers several Wetland Education and Training (WET) workshops each year.  WET Workshops are for professionals who:

  • work in wetland management
  • work in the academic and/or policy arena.

WET Workshops aim to:

  • share scientific research findings
  • successfully apply those findings to the management of Sydney Olympic Park and other wetlands.

The Wetland Workshops training program builds skills in assessment, planning, restoration, monitoring and management of aquatic ecosystems and resources.

Tutorials and field studies are conducted by practising ecologists and wetland experts.
