Tis the season for education, career shifts, and even back-to-school fever for those of us out in the workplace. Today, we’re speaking about the value of short-term, immersive experiences to build on your environmental education. Whether you are looking to dive deeper into your passions or learn about a totally new topic, there is plenty to gain from field stations, programs abroad, or bootcamp-style institutes. We are specifically today discussing our personal times at:
- The Green Program (through which CJ went to Iceland); learn about CJ’s scholarship program here
- Highlands Biological Station (but also mention Flathead Lake Biological Station and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute)
- University of Illinois – Chicago’s Summer Institute for Sustainability and Energy
- WWOOF, World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms
