You can take the course just for fun, but it is also an online enrolment to qualify as a volunteer on Watergum's platypus surveys! If you want to become a PlatypusWatch survey volunteer, please complete each section in the course. Be sure to tick the 'completed' box each time so that you see a blue tick in each section. Then test your knowledge with the quiz at the end. Please take a screenshot of your results and email us at platypus@watergum.org to join the program. Good luck!
