Did you know that the DNR’s Academy of Natural Resources gives educators from across the state the opportunity to learn about conservation trends from wildlife biologists, foresters, conservation officers and fisheries staff? It’s true – and you can be a part of it all this summer.
Our expert-led sessions are designed to empower educators with practical knowledge on a range of vital topics, including effective strategies for incorporating outdoor education into the classroom and tackling subjects like climate change. This year also includes a special session just for pre-kindergarten through third grade teachers, who can become certified in the early elementary programs for the award-winning Project WILD, Project WET and Project Learning Tree curriculum.
If you are interested, join us July 13-18 for the Academy of Natural Resources Classic at the Ralph A. MacMullan Conference Center, located?near Roscommon, or Aug. 3-8 for ANR North in the Upper Peninsula.
With a registration fee of $395 (which includes all lodging, meals and course materials) and the opportunity to earn 30 State Continuing Education Clock Hours, or SCECH credits, this is an investment in your professional development you won’t want to miss. Learn more about the workshops at Michigan.gov/ANR.
