Continuing education for elementary and high school teachers

If you're pursuing an education degree, have a strong professional interest in conservation or want to enrich your teaching, consider signing up for an educator workshop. Many Department workshops are done in conjunction with colleges or universities throughout the state and offer undergraduate or graduate credit hours. Workshops that are not for credit are free or require a small registration fee. Check out the list for dates, locations, and contact information to register. If you don't find a workshop that fits your needs, consult with your education contact to find out what they may be able to provide.

The Department offers many public events, programs and workshops that are also great educational opportunities for educators and students.

Workshops and events listed on this site are updated periodically so check back to see what new ones have been added.
