National Trust training schemes
How do you learn to be a
Countryside Warden? Mostly by doing it is the answer. That is the idea of the
National Trust's
training schemes that they run for various disciplines including countryside workers. The scheme was previously called 'Careership' and was very popular - it's now divided into a number of other schemes but it's still a great way to get started in the industry if you can get a place.
The programmes
include chances to learn both theory and practical skills at college and at
a National Trust property.

specially written for Naturenet by former Careership student Dan Billington in 2001. Things might have changed a bit since Dan's time training but the idea is the same!
