A Lesser Butterfly Orchid is in front of the camera, with it's beautiful white and green flowers. In the background a wildflower meadow can be seen with two people crouching - one is looking closely at the flowers, while the other is taking notes.

The Field Identification Skills Certificate assessment can be daunting, so a mock is a great way of preparing yourself for the real thing.

This mock assessment will mirror closely the FISC assessment. Although you will not get an official FISC score from this mock, you will get a mock score and have the full FISC experience so that when you are ready for your assessment, you will know what to expect. If you have any questions before you secure your place, or want to discuss any adjustments that would support you to take part, contact rachel.jones@plantlife.org.uk.

The assessor for this FISC is Sarah Shuttleworth, Specialist Botanical Advisor at Plantlife.

Plantlife is pleased to partner with the Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland (BSBI) as an Approved Provider for the FISC. This event is being run by Plantlife Biodiversity Consultants.
