Champions

ecoEd delivers training to select ecoEd Champions who form a network of enthusiastic professionals. These Champions receive extensive training in applying the scientific background in online tools to explore and analyse spatial biological and environmental data. The program aims to provide the Champions with the resources and knowledge required so that they can confidently re-deliver the teaching program in their own institutions.

Eight new ecoEd Champions received training in Canberra from 11-13 December 2018. The three training days included an intensive program during which the champions were introduced to the concepts behind biological and environmental data access, management, visualisation and analysis.

The first cohort of Champions who received training in June 2017 are:

Michael Swinbourne (University of Adelaide), Louise Croeser (Murdoch University), Nano Langenheim (University of Melbourne), Christina Zdenek (University of Queensland), Ingrid Ahmer (University of Adelaide), Bertram Ostendorf (University of Adelaide), Sarah Luxton (Curtin University), Nestor Robinson (University of Auckland).
