California Naturalist
Do you enjoy learning about the natural world? Would you like to learn about the amazing and unique ecology of California? If so, consider becoming a certified California Naturalist. The Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History is partnering with the University of California Cooperative Extension to offer this certification for Monterey County. The Spring 2013 class will begin Wednesday March 6th and run through Wednesday May 22nd.
California Naturalist is a new program developed by the University of California Cooperative Extension to foster a committed corps of volunteer naturalists and citizen scientists trained and ready to take an active role in natural resource conservation, education, and restoration. This program provides training, in collaboration with local sponsoring institutions, for adult environmental stewards through an adaptable outdoor and in class curriculum that can be as easily applied in a variety of settings. The program utilizes a science curriculum, hands-on learning, communication training, and community service to engage adults in interactive learning and provides them with scientific literacy and critical thinking skills.
