The BLM strives to realize healthier and more productive public lands through better informed citizens and well trained employees who are willing to participate and assist in managing the BLM administered public lands and solving complex environmental problems found in this 261 million-acre laboratory.

Providing the resources to learn about resource management has many advantages. By becoming familiar with the concepts and principles of managing within nature's limits, students learn to become innovators and problem solvers, and to make sound decisions. Studying resource management also encourages students to think about their environment holistically and to see connections between parts, both in the natural world and in other intellectual pursuits.
