Must attend both days to receive certificate and stipend. Overnight accommodations are not provided.

This workshop is open to both formal teachers and informal educators around the country, grades K-12.

The content of the workshop will be based on two sources of curriculum:

NOAA's Estuaries 101 focuses on topics such as: sharks, birds, plankton, invasive species, and water quality.

The Everglades Foundation's Everglades Literacy Program empowers the next generation of conservation stewards by investing in teachers to drive cultural change within schools for the benefit of local and ecological communities.

Lunch will be provided. Please bring a refillable water bottle.

Participation in all activities is required. $100 stipend is available upon completion of the workshop!

This workshop is first-come, first-served, with a waiting list. If you are unable to fulfill your commitment, please notify us as soon as possible so we can open up the space to another teacher.
