[BCMA] CIG Course Available at the Vancouver Aquarium May 21-24

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Hello Everyone,

The Vancouver Aquarium Education Department will be conducting a CIG (Certified Interpretive Guide) course through the National Association of Interpretation. The 32-hour course is May 21-24, 2024 and will be conducted at our facility here in Vancouver, BC.

Some of you may already know, but NAI's costs increase on July 1st. So in general, if you or your organization are interested in CIG, now is the time to book before those prices go up. We'd love to see you! Limited spaces available.

Have a great day!
