Professional Development for Climate Change Educators

In this webinar, ClimateChangeLIVE partners highlight professional development programs to empower you as a climate change educator. Each program offers training to increase your understanding of essential climate concepts and provide you with the tools and resources to implement a science-based climate change curriculum in your classroom and connect with networks of other educators teaching about climate change. Most of these programs offer grants to schools to help them implement climate change solution-related action projects, and include on-site and online training opportunities.

Climate Change Live Educational Resources - Part 2
