Overview
Oiled wildlife response training is offered to various levels, from on-the-ground responders to response managers. The course teaches the technical skills required to undertake operational tasks in search and collection of oil-affected wildlife; cleaning and rehabilitation of oiled animals; and development of oiled wildlife facilities.
About the course
The Rehabilitation and Facility Development in Oiled Wildlife Response course is offered at Massey University. You will learn from experts via online interactive teaching tools, exercises and videos of these activities from real responses.
It’s the course to take if you think you will be working in an oiled rehabilitation facility (either directly with wildlife or with facility management) but is also essential to understand for those that will go onto management or planning for oil spill responses.
