Employers of natural resource technicians and professionals require their employees to be skilled in math, English, science and technology. This program prepares graduates for entry level employment by teaching knowledge and skills in algebra, statistics, technical writing, computers, fisheries, forestry, wildlife management, chemistry, geology, and chemical and biological field and laboratory methods. The program utilizes an "applied approach" where natural resources concepts and principles (knowledge) are integrated into field and laboratory applications (technical skills). Effective communication skills, teamwork and leadership are also emphasized in this interdisciplinary approach to learning.

Data is unavailable for one of several reasons: In some cases, the institution has not provided the Workforce Board with data to independently evaluate program performance. We encourage all schools to provide this data on an annual basis. In other cases, the program joined Career Bridge recently and student data has not been reported yet. In other cases, the program is too small or too new to provide reliable results.
