The California Invasive Plant Council is seeking two Student Liaisons to join our leadership team!

Student Liaisons have the opportunity to work with land managers and the Cal-IPC board members to plan events for the annual symposium and engage with the weed management community as part of a growing organization.

This is also a great opportunity to expand your network. Our Cal-IPC board is comprised of land managers, government employees, academics, and non-profit and private sector members.

This is a two-year commitment, so it provides plenty of time to build meaningful connections within the Cal-IPC community.
