"The Swamp School is committed to providing a cutting-edge education for modern wetland scientists, who expect technology solutions to better their work. Wildnote elevates our curriculum, making the Swamp School the only wetland training program in the U.S. to offer a mobile technology component. We look forward to working with Wildnote to help our students perform more accurate and reliable delineations and to advance the state of the art in wetland evaluation technology."

- Marc Seelinger, Senior PWS, Swamp School Founder

According to the recent study Six Strategies to Advance Ecological Restoration (March 2020), "The number of competent restoration scientists, managers, restoration entrepreneurs, and practitioners is insufficient to meet global ecological challenges.”  And “current teaching strategies may not be providing these professionals with the cross-disciplinary knowledge required for ecological restoration". The partnership between the Swamp School and Wildnote can help address both of these issues by increasing the productivity of wetland professionals with the tools necessary to produce better ecological restoration outcomes. 

"We're thrilled to be chosen by the Swamp School as their technology partner for wetland delineation training. Being selected acknowledges our thought and product leadership in technology for evaluating wetland health. This partnership will not only put our product into the hands of hundreds of wetland professionals, but it will also allow us to learn from the Swamp School team and their students to develop our industry-leading platform further."

- Kristen Hazard, Wildnote CEO

The Swamp School

Based in Angier, North Carolina, the Swamp School offers post-secondary/college classes and webinars in wetland assessment, delineation and design, and other topics relating to the management of wetlands. The classes are designed to help environmental professionals enhance their skills and expand their business. Wildnote will be included in all of the Swamp School’s wetland delineation courses, whether offered in the classroom, online or on-demand sessions.

Automated Forms with Professional Wetland Training

The Swamp School has the ability to provide the wetland and IT technical support that students need to successfully use technology to collect data and report on wetland delineations. Marc pointed out that many of the issues with the wetland delineation data collection software products arise not from an inability to use the software but from a fundamental misunderstanding of what data needs to be collected, how, and why. By combining the wetland training with the software training, students will seamlessly integrate digital technology into their delineation projects. The newly-formed partnership was immediately put to use.
