Track & Sign Trainings and Certifications

This is a very rare opportunity to learn, train, and then certify with the CyberTracker system. We welcome animal trackers, naturalists, and nature enthusiasts to participate in this beautiful and biodiverse location. CyberTracker is the world’s only globally-recognised certification for wildlife professionals, nature guides, and citizen scientists.

In close collaboration with Stefan Huang, these offerings are designed to meet the unique needs of those new to this process and approach by providing multiple trainings leading up to the certifications. In addition to an online training course, we offer two options for in-person certification:

這是一個非常難得的機會能夠在一個美麗並具有高度生物多樣性的場域, 舉辦一系列結合學習, 訓練, 以及 Cyber Tracker 的認證考核的活動. 我們非常歡迎從事動物研究與追蹤, 野生動物保育工作, 戶外工作`以及自然愛好者能一起參與. Cyber Tracker 是全球唯一針對野生動物專業人士, 野外導覽與公民科學家的動物追蹤能力所建立的的認證制度. 

透過與黃道平 (stphuang@gmail.com) 的合作, 這次活動是特別對於初次接觸 Cyber Tracker 認證考核而規劃的複合式課程, 授課方式會包含線上課程以及兩種不同的認證考核模式:

費用: 美金 525 元 (不包含活動期間的伙食, 交通與住宿)

我們會用兩天時間提供動物行跡與觀察方法完整的講解與教學, 第三天會讓大家運用所學到的追蹤知識與技巧, 舉辦一場 Cyber Tracker 認證考核. 考核內容會包含動物行跡辨識與解說能力, 追蹤的基本原則與運用. 第三天的考核會是一場非常密集並具有高知識量的教學與實地測驗活動, 考核一共會有 30 道題目, 依完全依照現場實際狀況而定. 通過考核後會獲得 "動物行跡" 第一級認證.

TWO-DAY STANDARD TRACK & SIGN CERTIFICATION

15-16 FEBRUARY, FUSHAN BOTANICAL GARDEN

$425 USD

This is the classic design of two full field days in which we ask over 50 questions on wildlife tracks and sign. Each question will be thoroughly reviewed and used as a teaching opportunity to builds upon participants’ field experience throughout this third day. In the end, by comparing all that we have seen to the many other species possibilities, we will have discussed far more species than those whose tracks and signs we have encountered.

Participants will have the opportunity to earn a Track & Sign I, II, II, or Professional certification

Food & lodging not included in cost.

模式二

標準動物行跡認證考核

時間: 2025/2/15~16, 地點: 福山植物園及周邊地區

費用: 美金 425 元 (不包含活動期間的伙食, 交通與住宿)

這是完整兩天在野外進行全球一致的標準考核模式, 一共會有超過 50 道關於野生動物行跡的考題, 在這兩天的考核過程中, 講師會會跟受試者深入討論每一道考題, 並藉此提升受試者的實務經驗. 透過比對, 討論各種可能的動物行跡, 整個考核過程可能涵蓋的物種範圍會遠多過於我們在現場看到的.   

通過考的受試者, 將有機會獲得 "動物行跡" 第一, 二, 三, 四級認證, 第四級認證又稱為 "專家級認證".
