The Warreen Beek Rangers Program provides a culturally safe and hands-on learning experience for First Peoples interested in conservation and land management.

Established in 2016 through the vision of Traditional Owners around Melbourne, the program offers a Certificate III in Conservation and Ecosystem Management. Delivered primarily on Country, it blends traditional ecological knowledge with contemporary conservation techniques. With guidance from Elders, cultural practitioners, and industry experts, students develop skills in prescribed burning, land management, threatened species conservation, and more.

The program is open to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples, creating a supportive learning environment that values knowledge-sharing and community connection. Running two days per week aligned with the school term, participants engage in both fieldwork and classroom learning.
