23.2 - Communicate a consistent framework that will assess the impacts of project proposals on wildlife populations and hunting opportunities

In an interview with Werner Barz, Outdoor Recreational Specialist at US Fish and Wildlife Service, he said the topic of impacts to wildlife populations are covered in coursework at the National Conservation Training Center in their Refuge Management Academy and the Advanced Refuge Management Academy. Although, an examination of the curricula indicates that these course are heavily based upon the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). While the NEPA process will address impacts to wildlife populations, it may not specifically address impacts to hunting opportunities.

The National Conservation Training Center provides a venue for educating federal employees on wildlife, conservation and hunting.

The National Conservation Leadership Institute (NCLI) provides leadership training for federal agencies, state agencies, tribes, NGOs, or industry employees.

The Conservation Leaders for Tomorrow is a non profit with the goal "to identify future and current leaders of the natural resource profession who do not hunt and provide them with an understanding of the diverse values and important roles of hunting and its impact on conservation." The CLfT, in partnership with the National Conservation Training Center, conducts training for federal employees on the history, ecology and management of hunting, albeit not specifically on public land.
