Waterfowl

NABC provides opportunistic training and certification opportunities for waterfowl which are typically combined in annual workshops. The certification process for waterfowl is a  combination of participation in a training workshop, writing a written exam, and a self-administered experiential checklist. For more information about waterfowl training and certification contact the Waterfowl sub-committee Chair – Norm North.

The North American Banders’ Manual for Waterfowl is available here.

Requirements for waterfowl Banders are available here.

A Report Card for tracking the waterfowl certification progress is available here.
