Billie has been successful in her application to be a an Accredited Bat Consultant under the Earned Recognition scheme.

Bat Earned Recognition (BER) is a professional accreditation scheme designed to streamline bat mitigation licencing, whilst also raising and maintaining professional standards in bat mitigation work and improving outcomes for bats. The scheme is in its pilot phase, with plans to roll out nationally in the near future.

The application process for Bat Earned Recognition is comprehensive and rigorous. The applicants’ experience, knowledge, competence and skill as a bat consultant is thoroughly assessed by Natural England. Billie’s application has been successful, and she has now gained level 2 Accredited Bat Consultant.

Billie will now be able to register sites for a wide range of species and roost types including maternity roosts, hibernation roosts and horseshoe roosts via a more streamlined, efficient and cost-effective route, which is good for bats and also for developers.
