Topics covered include:
ecology of grassy woodlands
weeds and weed management in grassy woodlands
grassy woodland restoration
grazing for biodiversity
planning a management and restoration project
flora identification skills
identifying the natural values of a site and its threats
identifying vegetation community type
vegetation monitoring techniques
