Online Eco-Tourism Courses

Years ago I had the opportunity to partner with 2 wonderful people who knew a lot about sustainability. We created online Eco-tourism Courses. It was a very exciting time with ideas bouncing around. Each of us had a different area of expertise. We named our site ecohelpline.org.

Life just got too busy for us! and we had to abandon our endeavor, though we have remained in contact. We had created some free courses based on the Online Eco Rating. For more information about Ecohelpline please read our blog here: Eco Helpline. Creating the website really helped set me further on the course of sustainability As well as working with these 2 fine gentleman, Jem Winston and Hemant Thite. It was an exciting time for all of us working together.

Jem Winston, a friend and colleague from 3 Rivers Dominica, has started offering individualized classes to hotels/Lodges for Eco and Community tourism in a post Coronavirus world and more up to date topics. The link leads to the blog that was posted about it. Jem runs 2 successful Eco Lodges and has won many awards for his lodge 3 Rivers Dominica. In conclusion, you can read more and reach him at Jem Winston Consulting.

Jem will have other offerings of Online eco-Tourism courses soon. Eco-tropicalresorts will be adding them as soon as he notifies us. So please check back!

But the Online Eco Rating is available now. This is for Eco Resorts and Lodges to show they practice sustainability. The Certification comes with a logo that has a rating on it. Eco Lodges can display it proudly on their sites. It is an inexpensive way for Sustainable Lodging to prove they aren’t green-washing. We look at certain documents that back their claims of ecotourism. It’s not really an online eco-Tourism course but it addresses many areas of sustainability and hopefully brings awareness.
