Training & Education

The Conservation Leadership Network is a strategic alliance of non-governmental and public and private sector partners dedicated to building the capacity of professionals and organizations involved in natural and cultural resource conservation. It represents a new vehicle for strengthening the American conservation community and mainstreaming conservation into the work of non-traditional partners through courses, workshops, seminars and conferences. Launched by the Fund and its partners in 1998, the Conservation Leadership Network has provided training on topics such as green infrastructure, conservation GIS, balancing nature and commerce, fundraising, land stewardship, organizational management and leadership skills.
