Project Learning Tree Facilitator

VMN is encouraging all chapters to get involved with an optional training opportunity facilitated by our close partner at the Virginia Department of Forestry.
VMN is working to build volunteer involvement in Project Learning Tree, which is a fantastic environmental education curriculum for youth. Involvement of VMN volunteers can include taking the PLT educator workshop (learning to use the curriculum for youth programs), taking the PLT facilitator training (learning to train other educators, such as fellow VMN volunteers in how to use the curriculum), doing EE programs for youth using the curriculum, and/or giving training workshops for other educators (for those who complete the facilitator training.)

To this end, the FMN Chapter has approved PLT as a CE Provider and established Activity Service code E003: Project Learning Tree Facilitator.
FMN CE hours may be recorded for taking the required training and then service hours may be recorded for actually preparing material and teaching the curriculum, as described in the attachments.

Please see the attached letter from Ellen Powell and Lesley Newman that describes a bit more.

Please follow up with Lesley Newman and Ellen Powell directly if you have questions! Contact info may be found in the FMN Activity Code E003 in BI under Outreach and Education.
