| The Seattle Audubon Society
offers educational opportunities for individuals and families.
A variety of classes on birding and natural history are taught
throughout the year by qualified instructors who are experts
in their respective fields. See Class
Schedule for a current list of classes and their descriptions.
Seattle Audubon also offers a Master
Birder Program: A two-year education-for-service program
focusing on the identification and natural history of Washington's
birds. Since 1988 Seattle Audubon has graduated exceptional
classes of Master Birders. After passing an entrance exam,
individuals complete two intensive years of study of Northwest
birds. These highly qualified bird experts provide invaluable
leadership throughout the Seattle Audubon Society and the
community.
Seattle Audubon is again offering its highly successful Master
Advocate for the Environment Program. It will start
on April 7, 2004. In this 10-week series, participants will
learn about grassroots campaigns, how to earn good media
coverage, which lobbying techniques get results, how to
recruit volunteer support, proven outreach strategies, how
to negotiate effectively, and much more. All citizens who
are passionate about environmental protection and eager
to take their advocacy skills to the next level are encouraged
to apply.
