EARLY CAREER RAPTOR RESEARCHERS – ECRR!
Who can be an Early Career Raptor Researcher (ECRR)?
Current students or those who have graduated within the past 3 years.
Background
In 2009, the RRF Board created the Early Career Raptor Researcher (ECRR) Committee, with the charge of providing more services to and increasing participation of RRF’s student members and those that are early in their raptor researching career. The goal of the group is to better prepare RRF’s membership to take-on tomorrow’s raptor conservation challenges and provide structured opportunities for younger members to become more involved in RRF. Our goal is accomplished by planning events that provide training, professional development, networking opportunities, and other services to RRF’s younger members. In 2010, there was an article on the launch of the ECRR committee in Wingspan.
Get Involved
Any student or professional early in their careers can join the ECRR Group. Most of our activities occur at the annual RRF conference.

- ECRRs are also eligible for a discount on conference workshops typically held the day before the conference begins.
