Bat Conservation Trust eLearning (online training)
The Bat Conservation Trust has a range of different online training courses, webinars, talks and modules available, ideal for doing in your own time.
See here for those currently available.
These include a FREE 30 min course on Bat Care for Non-Bat Carers, how to look after a grounded bat until it can be passed to a trained bat carer. (When 'this time of year' is referred to it's mid/late summer when the recording was made).
Also, a Bat Care Theory - Foundation Course, an ideal starting point to get an idea of what is expected of carers. Further training and practical experience is the next step.
