Description:

The Watershed Management Achievement Certificate is designed for individuals who have a background or experience in natural resources, and who wish to acquire specific skills and knowledge necessary for successful job performance in the field of watershed management.

Watershed technicians assist in data collection and flora and fauna inventory and watershed restoration projects. Typical duties relate to the compiling of technical data and entry into computer database systems. Students in this field typically further their career in areas such as fish and wildlife management or the biological sciences. Students completing the Watershed Management Competency Certificate can expect to find jobs with county, state and federal agencies as well as non-profit watershed restoration and fisheries projects. They may also develop watershed plans, conduct watershed education, or work as river and field technicians, watershed technicians, or fish and game biology field technicians.

Population growth and the diverse resources base in California have created a demand for individuals trained in the principles of watershed management. This program is designed to equip individuals with skills to make a positive impact on the sustainable use of natural resources.
