Canadian Rviers Institute (CRI) elctrofishing training

March 26th, 2009 • Related • Filed Under

The Canadian Rviers Institute (CRI) offers backpack and boat electrofishing training in a two-part certificate course. All course content is accessedby participants via online training (available in English and French) and after completing and passing the final test, participants must complete a
half-day (full-day for boat) field practicum in order to receive the certificate.

We can offer the online training to anyone anywhere and we can offer the field practicum at your location based on a minimum enrollment (5+ people in order to re-coop some travel costs of the instructor). This course is recognized by Fisheries and Oceans Canada. This course does not meet the provincial regulations that exist in BC, and not does it meet the requirements of OMNR employee training – all others may take this course.

We have course fee reductions for First Nations groups and NGOs – please contact the CRI Training Coordinator for more information: Michelle Gray m.gray@unb.ca.
