The Wetland Professionals Association (formerly the Wetland Delineators Association) was organized in 1995 by a group of professionals interested in wetland delineation. The principle objectives of the Association are to promote and establish education and training opportunities for wetland professionals, provide a forum for the exchange of wetland delineation issues, and develop and promote the scientific foundation of wetland delineation.
The WPA holds educational forums from October through April of each year that are intended to provide an opportunity for the discussion of wetland issues. The WPA also sponsors educational seminars and special events throughout the year. A quarterly newsletter of special events, forum announcements, meeting minutes and President's column is published by the WPA. Please review the list of upcoming educational forums and consider the benefits of being a member of the WPA.
Wetland Delineator Certification is now being provided on a voluntary basis. Information about this program is at www.mnwetlands.umn.edu/cert. Twelve or more hours of continuing education is required per year for the Professional certification classification. WPA forums, typically offered the first Wednesday of the month, October through April, include 2 hours of qualifying education per forum and may be used towards the required 12 hours. During the 2007-08 forum season, there will be 4 forums and one all-day conference on January 30, 2008 with no forums in December, January, or February. |
