WRNBC Herd Online


Welcome to WRNBC Herd Online

As a membership-based network with the goal of supporting wildlife rehabilitation centres and professionals in British Columbia, we’re proud to host an ongoing virtual webinar series covering topics that will help strengthen rehabilitation knowledge and practice. Annual membership benefits include free access to all webinars, including a recording and summary notes after each session. Not sure you’re ready to join us as a member? You’re welcome to attend any webinar for a small registration fee.

Since we know how precious time is, we have dedicated one hour to each webinar and we’ll make the most of it! This hour will typically include a main presentation on the topic by a facilitator, and will be followed by a group discussion. Following the webinar, we’ll send out a recording of the session and some summary notes to participants.
