2025 LIVE - Virtual Learning Opportunities

Virtual Learning Opportunities

NDOW will host 6 virtual learning opportunities for your students! Our Western region angler and wildlife education coordinators will be teaming up to provide your students the ultimate virtual TIC experience.  Every webinar will be on Zoom from 10 -11am (give or take a few minutes) and will include a Q&A session at the end.  If you miss a webinar, all webinars will be recorded and uploaded to our YouTube channel to view. Please make sure to register your class prior to the start of the webinar to ensure you receive the correct link for the class. 

Our current webinar schedule is as follows: 

January 22 - Egg Day! - Lets have fun learning about how to set up an artificial tank to make sure our eggs are safe and have everything they need to survive. Also learn what to expect during TIC! You will also learn about a trout's habitat needs and lifecycle. This will be a great opportunity to learn what you can expect from your eggs while they hatch and grow. https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_2e-VFn27QF6caHm1Wd7cTQ
