The Direction of Academic Subjects of the ICIBC persecutes to promote the qualification of professionals in the areas of biology and conservation through the implementation of basic and advanced courses. These courses will have high academic standards and will aim at increasing and perfecting the analytic qualities of our students as well as to give them the technical tools needed for successful development of future projects and research. Also, the Director of Academic Affairs is in charge of coordinating essential formative courses for those communities that will ask for them, keeping in mind their specific necessities and qualifications. As an example, the course for the training of naturalist guides could be adapted to the specific requirements of the different communities that ask for this course.
