The Emerging Conservation Professionals Network (ECPN) works to create and maintain a forum and network for AIC members who are entering the field of conservation. This includes: undergraduate students, pre-program individuals, graduate students, and conservators with fewer than seven years experience including graduate school or other training. ECPN also encourages participation from established conservators and allied professionals. This page includes some of the resources developed for emerging conservation professionals.
To learn more about ECPN:
- The formal charge and structure of ECPN and list of current officers is found on the Network’s page on the AIC website, as well as our current ECPN flier.
