The objective of the two-week TREX program in Maine is to facilitate peer-to-peer, experiential learning for prescribed fire professionals and others interested in advancing innovative tools to restore fire-adapted ecosystems and is being designed to support states and provinces interested in hosting their own TREX to increase prescribed fire capacity across the region. Participants will engage in hands-on training in the ecology of fire-adapted ecosystems, communications and community outreach, prescribed fire monitoring, operational assignments, prescribed fire use, cultural fire and collaboration among a diverse array of participating individuals and organizations.
Application Period February 1 – May 1, 2025 Registration fee: $500, includes housing and all meals
