The ELC Training Course is an intensive, five-day field course designed to provide hands-on experience in applying basic field skills, along with the specialized techniques required by the ELC system.

The Ministry of Natural Resources has collaborated with Agriculture Canada, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs, and Consultants (from AECOM, and Beacon Environmental) to prepare the ELC Training Course. Students will find the wide range of expertise and talents amongst the teachers to be engaging, relevant, and able to address most questions and challenges that practitioners have.

At the end of each ELC Training Course, every student receives a certificate, provided they have met the attendance, skill level, and evaluation requirements during the course.
