Invertebrate Identification for Biotic Assessment Accreditation
1st - 3rd November, 2023
This three-day course covers the identification of the freshwater macroinvertebrate families used for biotic assessment (BMWP, WHPT, LIFE and PSI).
It is aimed at professionals with experience of identification, who wish to consolidate their knowledge.
At the end of the course, participants will be examined on their identification skills and, if the required standard is attained, a certificate of achievement in family-level invertebrate identification will be awarded.
This course is part of a series of FBA accredited invertebrate identification courses; future courses will allow participants to demonstrate their skills in taking individual groups of invertebrates to species level.
John Davy-Bowker is a knowledgeable freshwater biologist with considerable research and teaching experience.
