Sustaining the environment, using organic products, and adopting "green" practices are becoming increasingly important among today's consumers. This also means that careers in environmental science/conservation are growing in popularity and need.
Stratford's environmental science course could be a stepping stone toward one of many rewarding careers in environmental science, including:
• Forestry
• Managing woodlands
• Working on farms
• Maintaining reserves
• Soil and water conservation
• Park management
• And more!
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the majority of conservation workers are employed by government agencies, while the remaining workers are employed by private companies.*
Careers in environmental science are varied and depend on your area of interest and expertise. Some conservation jobs can be physically demanding and may require an individual to work primarily outdoors, while other conservation jobs involve working in an office or lab.

Most often, careers in environmental science require continuing education. Stratford's course offers a thorough introduction about careers in environmental science and is not meant as a preparation or substitute for a college degree or licensing/certification programs.
