Partners

“I have been promoted twice since I came back from Jersey. I am in the management cadre now – my interaction with my staff is fantastic thanks to the ITC and the Jersey Business School.”
DESMAN course participant, 2004

To extend the programme of training we offer and meet the needs of conservation professionals and students, many of our courses are run in conjunction with other organisations and experts in conservation.

We have links with some of the UK’s leading universities, including the University of Kent, the University of Reading and Imperial College London. Many students from our training programme have gone on to study for masters courses at the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE) at the University of Kent.

In 2008 Durrell launched an innovative new masters programme in partnership with Imperial College London, Kew Gardens and the Zoological Society of London (ZSL). The partnership has provided students with both the practice and the theory of conservation biology and endangered species recovery. Many students have gone on to conduct their masters projects within Durrell’s overseas conservation programme, thereby supporting the conservation work of the organisation.

We also have strong links to other wildlife organisations including the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation, Chester Zoo and the Charles Darwin Foundation.

We are always looking for new partnerships that enable us to extend the range of training we can offer in support of endangered species and habitat conservation.
