For the 2023 Workshop Application click below
Workshop participation is by application and fifteen-eighteen participants are selected by our Advisory Board based upon review of the application materials.
Applications are due Friday, March 10, 2023, 5:00pm PST.
**Eligibility note: Workshop participants need to be able to legally work in the United States. This workshop is not meant for people who have already completed studies in conservation or advanced students who have already completed all of the pre-program prerequisites for graduate education.
The application for the Summer Workshop slightly varies from year to year but always consists of:
- An application with general information and a series of short essays
- A current resume or CV
- A transcript (can be official or unofficial)
- 2 letters of recommendation, ideally at least one letter from a faculty member, and a second that can be from an employer, a mentor, or someone else familiar with your abilities.
The internship component is by application as well. However, that form is not available on this website, but is directly sent to workshop participants.
