Hi all i live in nowra 2 hrs south of sydney and am wondering if there is any sort of snake handling/relocation courses available. or anyone know where i can get some info on courses.
We have advertised several times in this site, if people are interested they need to contact us, we are running a course in Melbourne on the 12&13th June, this course is recognized by NSW DECCW!
just cos its recognised in NSW doesn't make it in sydney? its a fair hike to melbourne from the south coast...
Yer he was just trying to help and let people know.
I was more intrested in elapids
My point is that WIRES does not give out a permit......I have never claimed to, I simply provide one of many courses in Australia and WIRES wanted to buy my course two years ago! WIRES need to understand that there are several great courses out there, and to reduce the stress on them there is a process called recognition of prior learning, which will enable them to have more snake catchers available that have met appropriate levels of training, that is the idea of an RTO accredited course, for it to be Nationally Recognized not only by wildlife authorities but also employers and volunteer groups!I dont think WIRES accepts Snakehandler qualifications but Sydney Wildlife do as does DECC(or whatever they will be called) in NSW and all industry bodies.
