WILDLABS groups like this one are where conservation tech community members from every career stage gather to ask questions, share resources, and network. If you're just getting started in your #tech4wildlife career, making a career change from the tech world into conservation, or you're a student finding your path in the field, the Early Career group wants to meet you!
Likewise, the Early Career group is an excellent place for our conservation tech experts to share opportunities and resources with a wide audience of people who will make a big impact in conservation in the coming years.
How can you get started in our Early Career group?
- Visit our Welcome Thread and tell us about yourself and your career goals!
- Drop into our Share Your Master's Project thread to ask questions, share your updates, get advice, and discuss your project goals with people who can help you make progress
- Network with our group's regular events like Happy Hour, launching later in 2022
The Early Career group is looking for an organizer for a 6-month period to plan networking events and help conservation tech students from around the world connect! If you're interested in volunteering as group organizer, email ellie.warren@wildlabs.net with a brief summary of your early career conservation tech experience so far, and with an idea for one event or activity you'd propose for the group. We hope to hear from you!
