Ada Grabowska-Zhang | University of Oxford

Are you interested in switching careers into conservation? Or perhaps you completed some studies and you wish you'd done something more conservationy instead? So how do you transition across and how do you reskill?

Today we're talking to Dr Ada Grabowska-Zhang, from the University of Oxford. Ada is the Course Director for the Postgraduate Certificate in Ecological Survey Techniques, which is a one year flexible course, which trains people in the practice of working as an ecologist or a conservationist.

We talk about the course, who it's aimed at and how it works, and we also discuss Ada's career path and she shares her advice for people seeking to work as an academic or as a lecturer. It is an insightful conversation about a fabulous course. Enjoy.
