Professional Training
IWRC is the leading developer of professional training for wildlife care providers, in North America and abroad. As a non-profit organization, our primary goal is to educate our members, colleagues and the public on matters related to wildlife care and conservation.

IWRC training courses are developed and peer reviewed by professionals who excel in their fields. Veterinarians, biologists, biochemists, nutritionists and scientists from related fields work together to bring you the most current and reliable information available.
Distance Education
Because so many wildlife rehabilitators are in remote areas and without access to traditional classroom training, IWRC has developed a new, powerful online training program. This program allows more rehabilitators greater access to professional continuing education.

At IWRC we feel interactions among peers, as well as with experts in the field, are of critical importance. With that in mind, we developed our online courses to be live and instructor led -- Just like traditional classroom training, without the traveling and all of the related expenses.

For those who are unable to attend the live sessions, or have concerns about the stability of their internet connections, we have added an archive feature -- Each course is recorded and archived so registered participants can view them afterwards. While we feel that live interaction is important, we hope the archive feature will make these training courses even more accessible, especially to those outside of North America for whom the time difference would otherwise be limiting.
Our Instructors
IWRC training courses are facilitated by highly skilled instructors with real hands-on experience. They help us deliver the latest information and protocols to over 800 wildlife rehabilitators each year. And now with the development of online training, this number is quickly growing.
