Climate Science Workshop Series

Implementation Survey

A few weeks ago we sent you an email letting you know we would be sending this follow-up survey.

It has been over a year since the Climate Science workshop series, and we wanted to check in with you about how you may have used content from this workshop in your education programming, program planning, and possibly even your non-professional life. The agendas for both sessions can be found HERE. (Provide link here. Agendas are attached to this application packet.)

The information you provide will help the Environmental Science Training Center evaluate the effectiveness of the workshops we have been providing over the past couple of years, and help us plan future workshops.
