Conservation Education

Education and Training

If you:

• Want to pursue a career in nature-guiding or scuba diving;
• Are a career nature-guide looking to enhance your qualifications;
• Are an international university looking for study-abroad credits for you students,
• Are simply someone who wants to learn more about South Africa’s ocean and ecosystems.

Our partners can provide you with the in-depth learning experiences that you need! Endorsed by the Field Guides Association of Southern Africa (FGASA) our partner is a professional field-guide presenting courses leading to recognised qualifications in the eco-tourism industry. The instructors are all highly-experienced guides who are now passing their knowledge and experience onto learners. They will reveal the intricate workings of the ecosystem to you: the geology and soils, the plants and insects, the reptiles and amphibians, the birds and spiders and of course the large mammals.

Wildlife Training

The founding members of Eco Academy believe that environmental education during childhood and early adulthood is crucial to secure healthy and sustainable futures for all. One of the greatest tasks for society is to equip children with the attitudes, values, knowledge and skills necessary to become environmental leaders of the future.
