What threatens cultural resources and what protects them? This one-day workshop will help you feel more confident and competent in managing the risk associated with cultural resources on any project with a cultural resource component.




In this training, you will:

  • Be introduced to the Who, How, What, and When of tribal consultation or coordination;
  • Identify the 4 key components needed to fulfill your obligations under Section 106, Executive Order 05-05 and SEPA;
  • Learn which WISSARD Essentials are critical to know;
  • Understand how to kick off Section 106 consultation and what it looks like when you are done;
  • What to do if human remains are found on your project;
  • How to select a Cultural Resources Management professional, including evaluating scope and budget, evaluating the final report, and being aware of best practices.

Real-life scenarios from the instructor and insights from a tribal representative add richness and depth to this training.
