The TNC (The Nature Conservancy) Expertise Application is the replacement for the Science Expertise Database, which has been rewritten to improve usability and functionality, and has been moved to the conservation portal (along with ConPro and EAST). It is intended to serve as a place for TNC staff to list their scientific and technical expertise to make it easier to find your colleagues with specific skills. It is currently only available on the TNC intranet, but we hope to eventually make it public.
