NRM and biodiversity conservation training of transfers knowledge, skills, or attitudes through structured learning and follow-up activities, or through less structured means, to solve problems or fill identified performance gaps. Training includes long-term academic degree programs, short or long-term non-degree technical courses in academic or in other settings, non-academic seminars, workshops, on-the-job learning experiences, observational study tours, or distance learning exercises or interventions. NRM and biodiversity training is important for building local capacity and promoting sustainability.
