I Want PLT Materials!

Are you interested in using PLT materials? You can get a copy of the PreK-8 Activity Guide, Energy & Society Guide, or Secondary Modules by attending a professional development workshop. State and country sponsors organize all PLT workshops through a network of coordinators and facilitators. In the United States, more than 70 coordinators work with a cadre of over 2500 volunteer facilitators to offer workshops in their local communities.

There are different types of workshops offered to meet a variety of professional development needs. These workshops include: educator, advanced, and train the trainer leadership.

Educator Workshops

Educator workshops are open to anyone, held at convenient times, and are free or offered at a nominal charge. Through PLT workshops, you can:
  • Learn how to incorporate PLT's activities into your current and future lesson plans and curriculum
  • Meet other professionals in your area interested in environmental education
  • Become part of a network that offers you follow-up resources and opportunities
  • Learn about environmental education
