Only a maximum of 5 people on a course.  Got some bat survey experience and need a second reference for your survey licence?

Join us for the day revising and being assessed for your Level 1 bat licence. Level 2 may also be possible. The day will include internal and external surveys of buildings as well as a verbal assessment of your bat knowledge including health and safety, bat ecology, legislation, bat identification and much more. You must have at least 100 hours survey experience. Maximum of 5 people on a course. Courses are every 6 weeks in the period April to October.

Natural England have confirmed that the satisfactory completion of this course, and the Certificate issued, can act as a second signatory for a Level 1 and Level 2 bat licence. However, they sometimes ask for more information.

You will need to provide your bat experience log before you come on the course.
