BLTC is proving as popular as ever, and bookings are handled by Mrs Chris Rischmiller at Wildwood Ecology. Rather than leave this blog to get out of date because I am too busy to update it, drop Chris a line at training [at] wildwoodecology.com and she will let you know what current availability is like.

Welcome to the BLTC blog
Welcome to the Blog site for the Bat Licence Training Course for professional ecologists. Co-written and taught by Dr Sandie Sowler, MCIEEM, FLS and Richard Crompton, CEnv, MCIEEM, FLS. The course is provided by the Bat TRaining Partnership (http://www.battraining.co.uk/) and facilitated by Richard Crompton Limited.
This course has been prepared to address the difficulty many professional ecologists have obtaining licence training through local bat groups, many of whom are unable or unwilling to offer training to those intending to use their bat licences for commercial purposes.
The training is based on two key elements; a training diary or log of experience, and two residential field courses - one during the colder months of the year and one during the bats' active season. Sign-off for a licence is at the strict discretion of the trainers (both of whom hold training licences for Natural England and the Countryside Council for Wales), and follows an assessment and a review of training diaries.
