The two-year Fish and Wildlife Conservation Technician program provides the graduate with a broad background in natural resources and specialized skills in the fish and wildlife field.

Letting nature be your teacher is what the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Technician Program is all about! Sault Ste. Marie is located in the heart of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence mixed forest with ready access to the boreal forest to the north.
