Green Shores Level 1 RENR 1720

​This course introduces participants to basic shoreline ecosystem principles and management practices, with emphasis on the purpose and application of the Green Shores rating systems. The content is of interest to shoreline professionals, landowners, conservation organizations, local government staff, elected officials, real estate agents, and others who have a general interest in shoreline protection. Green Shores Level 1 is a prerequisite for Green Shores Level 2 for shoreline practitioners. Topics covered include an overview of shoreline ecology including threats and improvements, an overview of shoreline governance, and an introduction to the Green Shores program. This course may be delivered either as a face-to-face one-day workshop or, alternatively, as an online paced course. While the face-to-face workshop includes a visit to a local shoreline, the online course includes a virtual shoreline visit, both of which will allow participants to consider the concepts in a practical setting. Both of the delivery formats require active participation in group discussions around how to implement key concepts and put new learning into practice.
