PROJECT LEARING TREE

PROJECT LEARNING TREE

Workshop Leader TRAINING OPPORTUNITY

The California Project Learning Tree (PLT) program needs additional workshop leaders

and we would like you to join the “network” of PLT volunteer facilitators. Please join us at this leadership training workshop.

When and Where?

Who can apply?

Anyone who will lead or help sponsor Project Learning Tree workshops may apply. This 12-hour facilitator-training workshop will prepare and certify you to represent the PLT program in your region. Upon completion of the training, you can offer PLT as a professional development workshop for teachers, youth group leaders, natural resource managers, parents and others. The goal of PLT workshops is to demonstrate to educators

how useful the PLT materials and program are in helping integrate environmental education into their program and curriculum as well

as meet California’s academic grade level standards.

What are the benefits?

When joining the PLT facilitator network, you will be linked to one of the most dynamic groups of “EE” leaders in California. You will receive “Branching Out,”,” a newsletter for PLT facilitators, a variety of information to help keep you up-to-date with the trends in environmental education along with opportunities to attend additional training and gatherings. PLT also offers an annual awards program to recognize the outstanding service of those who implement PLT in California.

How do I apply?

If you are interested in attending, please contact Kay Antunez, PLT Coordinator, California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection to

Thanks for your interest and commitment to environmental education!
