Peatland Restoration Training

Building capacity for ecological restoration

We deliver a range of peatland restoration training and events designed for contractors, land managers, and consultants who want to deepen their understanding of restoration planning, design, and delivery, including projects undertaken on behalf of Peatland ACTION and others. Our training combines technical knowledge with practical insight from active restoration work. We also run hands-on/mentoring sessions to give participants the opportunity to apply this learning in the field and gain more confidence and understanding of the practicalities of restoration.

In addition to our Peatland ACTION training programme, we offer bespoke training packages tailored to the needs of organisations or projects, helping to build skills, share best practice, and strengthen capacity across the peatland restoration sector.

The training sessions are specifically designed for:

Contractors looking to undertake peatland restoration projects
Consultants looking to undertake peatland restoration projects, peatland condition assessments and feasibility studies
Ecological Clerk of Works
Agents preparing peatland restoration projects
Landowners and Managers

A typical training session includes:

An overview of Scotland’s peatland extent and condition
An introduction to planning and designing a peatland restoration project
An overview of restoration techniques
A site visit to look at examples of restoration techniques in action (for in person events only)
