Educator Workshops
We are so excited for formal and non-formal educators to learn how to incorporate our programs and activities into their curriculum!
Marine CSI has self-published two large books of marine and environmental science activities - a composite of the best of the best from national, regional, and locally recognized organizations. From these activities, we hand-selected several to present at our featured educator workshops throughout the year. With our partners at NC Sea Grant, we have access to some of the latest technology, as well as some amazing marsh explorations, giving our workshops Criteria II status for those completing or continuing their NC EE Certification.
STAY TUNED FOR UPCOMING WORKSHOP ANNOUNCEMENTS! Our in-person workshops will offer both indoor and outdoor activities, thanks in part to our partnership with NC Sea Grant. We will rotate to various locations along the coast, to better serve our education community.
