Kandyce Affleck, 2019 graduate from Niagara College’s Ecosystem Restoration Graduate Certificate program, currently works as a land management assistant with the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority, and recently received her Certified Ecological Restoration Practitioner-in-Training designation
A partnership between Niagara College and the Society for Ecological Restoration will help graduates of Niagara’s Ecosystem Restoration graduate certificate program become Certified Ecological Restoration Practitioners-in-Training. Niagara states that they have become the first post-secondary institution in Canada to partner with SER’s Certified Ecological Restoration Practitioner program, which helps graduates as they pursue the CERPIT designation. “Certification recognizes practitioners who have met a high standard of knowledge and experience,” stated SER CERP Program Coordinator Jen Lyndall. “Early career CERPITs, like those from Niagara College, can really differentiate themselves from other candidates during job searches, but more importantly they gain access to technical information and a network of hundreds of other CERPs and CERPITs from all over the world.”
