Continuing Education for Wildlife Rehabilitators If you are a wildlife carer interested in learning more about caring for raptors, we encourage you to join the Society in order to take advantage of our training and support network. As a member, you can be assigned a mentor who will work with you and assist you as you learn. If you or your group would simply like either a full or half day educational session (seminar or workshop) we can assist you. The advanced techniques used on raptors are sometimes applicable to many other bird species. Continuing Education for Animal Health Professionals If you are an animal health professional (Veterinary Surgeon or Veterinary Nurse) the Society can provide continuing education seminars and workshops for you and your staff in the specialised area of raptor care. We can train you in safe handling techniques, assessment and primary care, and provide you with emergency contacts who can help you when you require assistance. Contact us for more information. Continuing Education for Students If you are undergoing a recognised course of tertiary study to become an animal health professional and are seeking to expand your knowledge and gain practical experience with raptors, we may be able to assist you. Contact us for more information. Educational Sessions for Schools Our environmental education programmes are approved by the Department of Conservation and Land Management. School visits can be tailored to fit in with most class curriculae and our facilitators are happy to discuss prospective sessions with teachers and parents. We have facilitators based in Perth, Mandurah, Geraldton, Nannup and Margaret River who can visit your school with raptors for a unique educational experience. Contact us for more information.
