Wild pathways- work experience taster days
About the event
Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust has many different job roles. Are you at the start of your journey, wondering what to do as a career? Why not join a taster day and discover what some of these roles are like. These taster days are an opportunity to gain valuable experience within the wildlife conservation sector. Each day has different tasks and activities that staff across the Trust would do typically.
Along the way learn skills and knowledge to build your career path. Add this taster day to your CV, demonstrating that you have volunteered your time with the Trust and gained valuable experience.
This day will be held at Testwood Lakes Study Centre. There will be some education visits to shadow and see the work of the engagement team. There will also be conservation tasks and a walk around to carry out different survey methods. In the afternoon you will explore different roles across the Trust by understanding some of the admin tasks associated with these roles including RAs. We will then finish the day outside and do some invertebrate and plant ID.
This taster day is for 16 to 18yrs of age.
