Angling Trust – FishNET Training System

The Angling Trust has recently launched an online training system. https://anglingtrust.net/fishnet-learning-hub/

Thanks to Environment Agency funding through rod licence sales, the Angling Trust has produced FishNET – a completely free to use online Learning Management System (LMS) dedicated to educating our volunteers, club bailiffs, and those involved in law enforcement. It is aimed at supporting all users with an interest in fisheries enforcement and invasive non-native species (INNS) management in fisheries including:

• Anglers who may or may not be members of the Angling Trust.
• Angling Club Bailiffs and Club Committee members.
• Fishery owners and employees.
• Voluntary Bailiff Service members and those interested in applying to join.
• Police Wildlife Crime Officers and any other Police staff from Police service across England.
• Angling Trust staff and volunteers.
• Members of Governmental Organisations (GO’s) with an interest in freshwater fisheries enforcement issues, e.g. Environment Agency, Natural England, IFCAs, Marine Management Organisation etc.
• Members of Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO’s) with a fisheries enforcement interest or working with anglers to manage invasive species, e.g. RSPCA, Rivers Trust, Canal & River Trust (CRT) etc.
• Water asset owners or managers who manage assets with angling activity, e.g. water companies, CRT, etc.
• Anyone intending upon applying via the Angling Trust for funding under the Fisheries Improvement Programme or Angling Improvement Fund.
