About this Event

This training session will provide a refresher for people that have previously successfully passed a 5-day general training session. The session will focus on the skills necessary to consistently conduct accurate assessments of wetlands using CRAM, and will provide guidance on the use of CRAM for ambient and project assessment and monitoring. The session involves both classroom and field instruction, with an emphasis on the field component.

Schedule and Logistics

This training will be held on April 7th, 2025. Your lead training instructor will be Sarah Pearce from the San Francisco Estuary Institute, statewide CRAM training coordinator and a member of the statewide Level 2 committee of the California Wetlands Monitoring Workgroup. Two field sites in the East Bay area will be visited. Course agenda and details will be emailed to participants two weeks prior to the session.

Registration closes on March 31, 2025. A total of 24 registrations are available. If the class fills you will be placed on a waitlist.

If a registered participant must withdraw before March 31, we will transfer registration to a later class (2025 or 2026) with no charge, or will refund in full minus $40 admin fee. No refund after March 31.



Classroom Portion
  • Will have a short classroom session in the morning
  • Will quickly get the group out to two field sites to conduct assessments alongside the lead trainer. Discussion will focus upon best assessment practices and consistent interpretation of each metric.
  • Each participant will need to bring a sack lunch or purchase at a short lunch stop.



Field Portion
  • Participants will visit and perform assessments at 2 field sites
  • Participants will gain experience in accurately and consistently conducting assessments
  • Each class will visit a unique set of wetland types within their region



Field Equipment

Participants will need appropriate field clothing (pants, long sleeves, layers) and footwear: 1) hiking boots/sturdy field shoes, and 2) knee boots. Based upon the amount of precipitation that falls in the spring, it is possible that participants will need hipboots or chest waders as well. We will communicate as early as possible on the need for these boots.
