This part lab and part field course is designed to give participants the knowledge and familiarity necessary to identify members of these difficult families. Participants will learn vocabulary, work extensively with keys, and hone dissecting skills. Participants will be exposed to well over 100 species through prepared specimens and field work.
This course trains one to determine if a water body is a Waters of the US using the Clean Water Rule and the pre-Clean Water Rule Rapanos protocol and if a site is a wetland using the Regional Supplement.

This course covers critical elements for construction and restoration of wetlands. These principles are requisite for mitigation projects and for mitigation banks regardless of size. The elements covered include establishing goals, site selection, defining and quantifying hydrology, preparing vegetation plans, and establishing a proper soil substrate. Please note: as with most WTI courses, this course has broad applicability throughout the United States.

This course satisfies the requirements for basic wetland delineation training as specified by the Corps of Engineers and certification programs in many states. Materials and content are the same as identified in our in-person 5-day Basic Wetland Delineation classes. Expect to spend a minimum of 24-lecture-contact-hours online that can be started at any time, but must be completed prior to attending the field session selected at time of registration.
Online lectures on soil formation, redoximorphic features, soil color, drained hydric soils, and wetlands not meeting indicators will prepare the participant for the field exercises and additional instruction on regional hydric soil indicators and problematic situations. Expect to spend a minimum of 8-lecture-contact-hours online and 16 hours in the field. Online lectures can be started (and reviewed) at any time, but must be completed prior to attending the field session selected at time of registration.
