DEADLINE DECEMBER 10 - WIN A $50 MEC Gift Certificate
Every fall ACEE asks you WHAT DO YOU NEED? Last year professionals from over 70 different environmental education agencies responded. The information helped us shape the professional development program for 2010 and improve the services offered by ACEE.

WANT TO KNOW WHAT TEACHERS NEED?
This year ACEE is also doing a survey specifically for teachers. The main goal of this survey is to identify barriers teachers experience delivering environmental education and find ways to better support teachers.
If you deliver programs to teachers or have some teachers in your network, please pass along this link to them.
Teacher Survey
DEADLINE DECEMBER 17
We will be sharing the anonymous results of this survey so everyone can benefit from the findings and we can all provide better support for teachers in the classroom.

Cenovus Energy Environmental Education Leadership Clinic a great success!
They came, they learned, they created logic models. They also laughed, played in the snow and sat in the hottub! A perfect balance of fun and serious work.
