Good people to speak to would be e.g. Andre Colonese, Marcello Mannino, @marjolein-bosch.bsky.social, @amylprendergast.bsky.social, @niklashausmann.bsky.social, Bernd Schöne. There are many more out there though!

To be honest, I think if she has some experience I doubt that most PhD programmes would be looking for specific evidence. I think most archaeologists in this field have primarily learnt 'on the job', with the help of guide books.

If identification is the main goal, she might want to look into more biology/ecology themed courses/workshops (I'm afraid I don't have any specific suggestions for that!)

What kind of training is she after? Something traditional zooarch-y, identification, labwork techniques etc? I also don't know of specific courses, but in my experience there are plenty of lovely people working in the field who have always been very generous in giving their time to provide training
