I really appreciate the energy, passion, and thought that go into each of these events. You really do think of every little detail, even the ones that people probably don’t notice. You do a wonderful job of connecting and communicating beforehand, during and after an event. I am always telling others that CBEEN offers, by far, the best professional development!

Thanks for a fabulous, inspiring weekend. I love the boost of energy and enthusiasm I get for teaching people about nature from this symposium.

The event was a “10”. It was perfect. The perfect people were here in a perfect place talking about and deeply thinking on critical themes that run through our personal and professional lives.

This event was beyond my expectations. All of the educators were so inviting and engaging – the atmosphere was relaxing yet exhilarating with ideas and sharing in all directions.

I appreciated the chance to really get to know everyone and share. This Symposium was a great mix of relaxation and productivity!

This symposium inspired me to go forward and teach my Grade 8 class with renewed inspiration and confidence in their future on the planet. It provided the highest quality learning experiences from professional sources and showcased the talent of the participants as well. The conference also provided opportunities to network with like-minded professionals and discuss and problem-solve issues related to education as it pertains to Sustainability.

Meeting together with other environmental educators rekindled my sense of purpose, and knowing there are others in the basin that share my values and love of teaching about nature will keep me motivated till we meet again

I came away from the weekend retreat refreshed, stimulated and excited about being an environmental educator, who can share my passion for the world around us with my students.

It was quite an incredible experience to be in a place with environmental educators who are well aware of the seriousness of the challenges we face, and who in spite of this are determined to work for positive change by educating and engaging young people in meaningful and authentic ways.

The Voices for Sustainability event is about getting motivated and recharged. It allows participants to learn from each other, to share best practices and to showcase what they are doing in their classes and their communities around education for sustainability. I have always come away just bursting with new ideas and inspiration.
