SUMMARY:SOLD OUT: Oregon Spotted Frog Professional Training 2026
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to identify: \n\nadult and juvenile Rana pretiosa and Rana aurora\nspring wetland egg masses of native amphibians \nsuitable year-round habitat for amphibians at risk\n\nRegister now for the 2026 Oregon Spotted Frog Professional training session. This training will enable environmental monitors (staff or contractors) to accurately identify and distinguish local frog species caught during work in and around waterways\, ditches\, or wetlands. This is an important professional development opportunity for environmental monitors to ensure due diligence and accuracy in amphibian identification. If your organization will or may be working in Oregon Spotted Frog areas and would like to send a group for hands-on frog identification and habitat recognition training\, please consider this limited-time opportunity. \nTraining will be provided by local Oregon Spotted Frog experts working for the Fraser Valley Conservancy (Olga Grunlund and Spencer Peters) along with a guest expert from the Ministry of Water\, Land\, and Resource Stewardship. The charge for this 2.5-hour training session will be $50 per person. Please note that space is limited! \nTraining session options offered this year: \n\nMonday\, March 16 – 12:30pm – 3:00pm SOLD OUT\nTuesday\, March 17 – 9:30am – 12:00pm SOLD OUT\nTHIRD SESSION ADDED: Tuesday\, March 17 – 12:30pm – 3:00pm SOLD OUT\n\nImportant Notes: \nRegistration closes once all spots are filled or at 3:00 pm on March 15th. \nIf conditions change significantly\, the dates may need to be adjusted slightly (for example\, if a large freeze event halts breeding\, and frogs are not available for in-hand identification training). Participants will be notified as quickly as possible if any schedule changes need to be made. \nOnce Registered – You will receive an email with additional details on the session\, including when and where to meet. \nSpace is limited – register here!\nAdditional Information\nThese sessions are intended for environmental professionals including environmental monitors\, municipal staff\, and decision-makers who come in contact with Oregon Spotted Frog and its habitat. Oregon Spotted Frog is Endangered (provincially and federally). Within Canada\, it is only known to occur in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. It lives in water year-round and is found in a variety of agricultural ditches\, sloughs\, shallow wetlands\, and marshes in the Fraser Valley. In the past decade\, two new populations of Oregon Spotted Frog have been discovered in Abbotsford and Chilliwack\, suggesting there are more potential areas where this endangered frog may still be undiscovered. Oregon Spotted Frogs are most likely to be encountered during regular drainage maintenance works; however\, few environmental monitors are trained in the identification of this cryptic species. \nFor questions\, please contact Olga: Olga@fraservalleyconservancy.ca \n
