Sneak Peak at our 2018 Conference!

There’s a PLETHORA of super climate change education sessions on this year’s NAAEE Conference Program! Thanks to all of you for offering them so that we can learn about your work, gain from your experience, and even benefit from the challenges you’ve encountered along the way.

Thanks to those of you who responded to my e-mail, we already have a list of some of the sessions you can count on – see below.  I hope this will help you plan ahead and find some sessions that will be especially valuable to you.

If you have not already, please send me a quick e-mail so that I can add your information to the following list.  Let me know: the time, date, room #, and title for your CCEd session(s) so that we can easily find each other in Spokane.

AND remember to complete your Conference Registration at https://naaee.org/conference by August 24 to get the Earlybird Rate!

Looking forward to seeing you soon,

Karen
