Course Description

(River Restoration Professional Certificate Core Course 5) While river restoration science is complex, many projects fail due to lack of funding and coordination between the partners. In a climate of restricted funding, project management skills and systems are critical to maximizing project cost-effectiveness. In addition, restoration projects depend heavily on collaboration and buy-in of affected landowners, local governments, and other stakeholders. The collaborative nature of river restoration projects requires the cooperation of multiple agencies, consultants, and stakeholders at every phase of project selection, planning and implementation. Many river restoration teams undertake complex and large-scale projects without a full appreciation for these management and communication complexities.

This course will lead participants through the process of building multi-agency and interdisciplinary teams, setting up administrative systems, and creating internal and public communication plans. Case examples will be provided for various restoration project types and scales. Facilitated by Bruce Henderson and Dan Warren, speakers will include representatives from state and federal agencies, consulting firms, and non-governmental organizations.
