[RangelandsPartnership] Rangelands Partnership Collaboration Opportunity

[Mark Thorne]

Aloha Rangelands Partnership,

 

I hope everyone is safe, healthy, and spending time in the field or Library
as the case may be.  

 

Karen Launchbaugh, Barb Hutchinson, Amber Dalke, Aaron Lien, and myself are
starting work on a proposal to the USDA focused on development of a
workforce training curricula for early and mid-career range management
professionals.  We feel that the output of this project will help advance
the profession of range management by providing support for the two Society
for Range Management certification programs through test preparation
curricula and continuing education opportunities and training  opportunities
for state and federal land management personnel, while also providing a
mechanism to enhance the sustainability of the Rangelands Partnership.
Attached to this email is a brief prospectus of the project we envision.  We
would like to invite anyone with time and an interest in the project to join
us in collaboration.  Please review the attachment and let me know if you
have any questions.  I look forward to hearing from you on your decision.

 

Kind Regards,

 

Mark
