Here you will find a series of videos we produced for the California Bumble Bee Atlas, as well as a few from our sister project, the Pacific Northwest Bumble Bee Atlas. If you are not able to join a live training webinar, feel free to watch this prerecorded version (all four modules below) instead. After doing so, you'll still need to take a short quiz before we can add you to the project's Scientific Collecting Permit.
