Training opportunities in plant propagation, fire and fuels management & more
CNNCTS partners have worked to “Expand landscape stewardship pathways”, through a focused effort to coordinate and implement training opportunities to build capacity for economic and workforce development. Train-the-trainer programs and regional hubs have been developed to further scale up these opportunities with a special focus on coastal resilience and fire stewardship.
CNNCTS partners collaborated to provide a space to learn more about the web-based mapping tool ArcGIS Online in January of this year. This was an identified need for training in mapping tools that can help inform drought management, climate change modeling, and native plant restoration.Through this workshop, 32 community members (with a wait list of 40+) strengthened their tools by telling their story through data.
