Invasive-Wise Tourism Training & Support Program

 

The Invasive Species Council of BC (ISCBC) has partnered with a group of tourism operators across B.C. to pilot the new Invasive-Wise Tourism program, a training and support program for B.C.’s tourism industry. The program includes an eLearning course, print, and digital resources for staff and clients, support from ISCBC, and a recognition program.

The overall goal of the program is to protect species at risk and B.C.’s rich biodiversity from the threats of invasive species by focusing on high-risk pathways such as movement by tourists, anglers, boaters, floatplanes, and recreationists.
