Courses
The MCS SouthEast Group run a series of marine identification courses throughout the year. These usually take place at Leeson House Field Study Centre in Dorset. Leeson House is set in beautiful grounds and has well equipped class rooms.
The courses are designed for people with no formal background in marine biology, to introduce the major groups of animals and plants that are found in the sea. A general description of the characteristic structure and appearance of the representatives of the group is dealt with, as well as their ecology.
All courses include the opportunity to take a dive under Swanage pier to put the newly acquired theory into practice.

Course Descriptions
Marine Identification Courses:
The course is designed to allow enough time for the class work and the diving without being too
intensive. Our aim is to show people with little or no experience in marine life the variety of animals, fish and plants that we have around our coastline.

Marine Ecology Course
The aim of the course is to expand on the knowledge gained during the Marine ID course. We hope to show how marine life is affected by its habitat and how the type of habitat will influence the variety of animals, fish and plants that will be found there.

Digital Underwater Photography
To show those new to underwater photography how to start taking successful photographs / images and help existing photographers who are not having the success they had hoped for improve their technique.
