The business has also delivered training for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) and worked collaboratively with the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) to develop a new EIA module for the Sustainable Development degree programme. Our staff regularly contribute to community events, including careers fairs, seabird monitoring sessions and bat walks. We are also currently developing an entry level GIS familiarisation course for local professionals and crofters.
