The Challenges of Starting in Conservation: Skills to help Students and Emerging Professionals (Part Two)

With the decision taken to postpone the emerging professionals event until 2022, the Textile Group have created this accessible two-part series for all students and emerging professionals to help provide some advice and support on the challenges both old and new when starting a career in conservation.

With the decision taken to postpone the emerging professionals event until 2022, the Textile Group have created this accessible two-part series for all students and emerging professionals to help provide some advice and support on the challenges both old and new when starting a career in conservation.

The aim of these webinars is to prepare students transitioning into employment in an ever-changing field, which is even more prevalent during these turbulent times. We hope these presentations will encourage those who are new to conservation and help equip them with the tools and contacts needed to grow successfully in the field.
