Beyond the Ice: The Interconnected Arctic Mosaic (Winter 2027 Cohort) Start Date: January 11, 2027 | 7 Weeks, Asynchronous & Self-Paced

Looking to elevate your public climate programming, nature center exhibits, or community outreach? Join Wild Rose Education for Beyond the Ice: The Interconnected Arctic Mosaic.

Designed for formal and nonformal educators, museum interpreters, park rangers, and public communicators, this 7-week virtual course transforms how we engage audiences with polar science—moving beyond isolated ice caps to explore the Arctic as a dynamic heat engine and interconnected human landscape.

Why Join This Cohort?

• Braided Knowledge Systems: Learn to weave Indigenous Knowledges with Western science to create holistic, culturally inclusive visitor experiences.
• Public-Facing Tools: Walk away with hands-on, low-stakes routines—like data-journaling and NOAA Arctic Report Card dashboard tools—that bypass "numerical fatigue" and connect polar shifts directly to your local watershed.
• Flexible Pacing for Field Schedules: Complete ~15 total hours asynchronously with weekly milestones built to fit around seasonal work.
• Professional Credentials: Earn 15 Continuing Education Hours or an optional 1 SCED Graduate Credit Hour through Adams State University ($60).

Registration: Sliding scale ($165 / $185 / $210)
