They include a Wildfire Science Certificate program, a certificate in the Sociocultural Dynamics of Wildfire, and a certificate in Wildfire Communications and Media; a series of Wildfire Leadership and Emergency Communications certificates; and the Wildfire Studies Diploma. “TRU is excited to offer these programs and be part of the solution in addressing wildfire challenges,” said TRU Provost and VP Academic Gillian Balfour.
