conference SCHEDULE
Between the pre-conference workshops, regional meet-ups, concurrent sessions, and virtual networking opportunities, this year's virtual conference aims to send virtual conferences out with bang!
We can't wait for in-person events and seeing environmental educators together again, which has made us work even harder to create an engaging, dynamic, and interactive experience for all who participate! Check out our line up of keynote speakers, regional meet-ups, and pre-conference workshops in the Conference Schedule. Once registered, you'll gain full access to the schedule and you can build your own lineup of sessions! |

Adapting with the Next Generation of Learners
