Badgers and Developments

Badgers are frequently encountered on development sites, so it is important that ecologists have a clear understanding of the legislation and guidance relating to badgers and development, and to make sure we use appropriate mitigation techniques. When is a licence required? What type of licence is required? Will this activity result in disturbance of badgers in a sett? Is this an active sett? If these are questions that your have asked, then our advanced badgers and development course is probably just what you are looking for. This online course is a pre-recorded webinar on video.

Here’s what our students are saying:

Having previously undertaken courses with etuk, I was excited to take the Badgers & Developments one. It didn’t disappoint, Sue’s style of teaching, course content and explanations were easy to understand, with the added bonus of being able to download the manual for future reference. I immediately shared the availability of this course with friends and colleagues, and cannot recommend enough courses with etuk.
