I just wanted to let you know about a great new opportunity from Cal Poly Humboldt. They have developed the California Rangeland Education (CRED) Program. This is a series of five, 1-unit rangeland classes. You do not need to be formally admitted to Cal Poly Humboldt to enroll. The courses meet once a week for four weeks. Four of the meetings are online, plus there is one in-person field trip for each course. The cost is $400 per class.
The classes are
• Rangeland Plant Physiology (registration closes next week)
• Rangeland Ecology and Vegetation
• Rangeland Measurements
• Rangeland Animal Husbandry
• Rangeland Law and Economics
These courses are an excellent option if you are interested in pursuing a career in range management, including applying for federal Rangeland Management Specialist positions, if you don’t have a range background but your job has a range component, or if you just want to brush up on your rangeland knowledge.
If you have any questions, you can reach out to Susan Marshall at sem11@humboldt.edu.
