Get started on your environmental career without a college degree!

Let's talk about job requirements, pay, career paths, and benefits of the job! If you want to work for the National Park Service, Forest Service, Fish and Wildlife, Bureau of Land Management, or any other land management agency you don’t actually need to have a college degree. This was information I wish I had when I was starting my job search and realizing that my passion was natural resources, environmental science, and just working outdoors. I was poor and swamped with work but still pushed ahead with college and had a lot of hard years and hope this information can help you be smarter than I was! I would have honestly been beside myself if I got one of these jobs at 20 years old.

Natural resources, environmental conservation, recreation, and wildland firefighting are all awesome job fields, that if you are built for can bring a happy and fruitful career. Good luck and let me know if this helps and anything else you need help with!
