The North American Monarch Institute (NAMI) workshop is a 2- to 3-day intensive professional development for K-12 and preservice teachers and non-formal educators. During this workshop, participants learn about the monarch life cycle and migration, gain an introductory understanding of monarch conservation, and learn how to participate in multiple monarch community science programs. In addition to heavy monarch content, participants will also explore concepts of schoolyard ecology and invertebrate diversity while following the process of science. These workshops use the Monarchs and More curriculum as the backbone for content and instruction and all participants receive a copy of this in addition to other materials.

NAMI has several formats and each one is different depending on several factors. There are options for open registration and contracted workshops. Click here to learn more.
