Naturalist Program for Tour Guides and Park Rangers

The naturalism course for tour guides and park rangers has a more practical approach, adapted to the dynamics and environments of their work.

 

The module for park rangers includes topics such as the scientific method, ecosystem management and conservation, the natural history of species, biological monitoring as an assessment tool, the management of digital scientific collections, keystone species for biodiversity conservation, climate change, and climate variability.

​

The module for tour leaders includes topics and skills development that are fundamental to nature tourism. These topics range from developing the characteristics of a naturalist guide, interpreting the natural world, developing services and tour packages, the tourism value chain, communicating the value of biodiversity, structuring outdoor talks, organizing expeditions, and other fascinating aspects of naturalism.
