TRACS Introduction Course

Type: Instructor-led classroom training

Duration: 16 hours

Description:

During this 2-day hands-on introductory course, students will learn to use the WildlifeTRACS application to create and manage data for the tracking of conservation projects and actions funded by Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration grant programs.  In addition, students will learn to create maps, access reports, and use decision support tools related to goals, objectives, and effectiveness measures.  Wildlife TRACS consists of two main system components: Public TRACS and Data TRACS.  Participants will learn to use both system components to generate summary and detailed reports, create and retrieve information in a geospatial environment, query projects and actions by various criteria including species and habitats, and facilitate strategic conservation through the use of open standards, shared data, and networking.

Who should attend this course:

Persons responsible for inputting or managing WSFR grant program projects and performance data, especially state wildlife agency coordinators, program specialists, project leaders, and WSFR grant specialists.

Objectives:

• Describe how Wildlife TRACS fits within WSFR grant programs and processes.
• Describe the roles and responsibilities of federal and state/grantee partners in managing WSFR grant program data within Wildlife TRACS.
• Enter and manage project data and performance reports within Data TRACS.
• Use the TRACS training manual and understand what other training resources are available to Wildlife TRACS users.
