    What can I expect?
    Training involves an indoor classroom session as well as a practical survey of a nearby river, teaching you the kick-sampling method for riverflies.
    We will go over identification of riverflies, health & safety, and how the data you collect is used to monitor river health.
     
    Volunteering 
    This training is provided to you for free thanks to generous funding from Sheaf & Porter Rivers Trust and ongoing support from Don Catchment Rivers Trust. 
    Volunteering after the training is a commitment of ideally one river survey a month between the months of April-November.
