Cultural Resource Management in Wilderness: 1 Fundamentals
Course summary
This is the first in a series of three courses on Cultural Resources Management in Wilderness. Managing the cultural resources often found in wilderness presents a different stewardship challenge than managing those in non-wilderness. In this course, you will learn about the importance of cultural resources in wilderness and begin to consider how their management differs from that of cultural resources in areas that are not wilderness.
Course objectives
After completing this course, learners should be able to:
• Describe the various types of cultural resources found in wilderness.
• Provide an overview of the laws, regulations, and policies that govern how we manage cultural resources.
• Discuss controversies surrounding the management of cultural resources in wilderness.
• Apply the Stewardship Model to cultural resources in wilderness.
These are self-paced, continuous enrollment courses offered through the UM Wilderness Institute in partnership with the Arthur Carhart National Wilderness Training Center.
