The Swamp School's classroom Basic Wetland Delineation Training (WDT) is aimed at helping novice and experienced wetland delineators fully understand the new Army Corps of Engineers manual and supplements and their application in permit decisions.  Upon successful completion of the program, a certificate of wetland delineation training will be provided. This workshop covers basic wetland training and includes the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Manual and the new regional supplements. We cover the conceptual framework of the wetland indicators as well as the regulatory context, court decisions and related laws. While our classroom training centers on a couple of regional supplements.  We do offer 10 Regional Supplements, and we can add more as you need them. The Regional Supplement presents all of the relevant wetland indicators as they pertain to that specific region. Students will complete the field work at a site near the training site. We will show you exactly, what you need to do in your field training. Our training is a blend of live classroom lecture with field work portions. It is designed to get you trained at quickly and in a region that is convenient for you. Our training has been accepted for a number of professional continuing education and certification programs including the Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS) program.
