The GLWFC is a 4-day professional development experience for teachers from August 5-8, 2025 in Suttons Bay, MI. Training in the course includes watershed and environmental concepts, place based education and environmental education pedagogy, and time for curriculum development. Educators will learn how to engage students in local environmental issues, investigate solutions, devise a plan, and take action during this course. Inland Seas supports teachers throughout the school year with additional training, online forums, and other forms of assistance to help teachers implement their watershed-based stewardship action projects.
There is no cost for this experience, but space is limited to 30 participants. Deadline for applications is April 20, 2025 by 5:00 p.m. EST.
