Instructor Bios
Join this brand new, two-day, in-person course to learn all about streams! Spending one day in the classroom and one day in the field, participants will dive into the basics of watershed analysis and stream processes.
This class is designed to be an entry level course for water resources professionals (i.e., engineers, scientists, landscape architects, planners, restoration practitioners) and will include an introduction to site assessments for stream restoration projects. The course will be taught by a licensed professional engineer, fluvial geomorphologist, regulatory experts, and watershed scientists.
The field day will include a visit to a degraded stream and a healthy stream with visual and hands-on assessments. Data collected will be reviewed and analyzed at the close of the course. Attendees must commit to attending the full course to receive a course completion certificate.
