Teacher Workshops at The International Fishing Hall of Fame

IGFA offers FREE teacher workshops to introduce teachers & environmental educators to the fresh and salt water ecosystems in Southeast Florida. Workshops give teachers hands-on knowledge of activities they can do back in their classroom.  These workshops also give teachers the opportunity to learn what programs IGFA and The Science Eye have to offer them in forms of educational lab programs, ativities and field trips.  Once a teacher has completed a workshop, they become IGFA Certified and will receive discounted prices for their student's admissions and programs at IGFA.  For a .pdf printable copy of a workshop flyer, please click on the workshop you are interested in.

Learn about Southeastern Florida's wetland and coastal habitats through hands-on activities.  Educational materials will be provided for all teachers that attend.  In order to conduct these workshops, we must have a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 50 teachers.

Off-site Teacher Workshop Field Days

For those teachers that have participated in previous teacher workshops, there will be special field study days available throughout the year. These "in-the-field" days include hands-on activities, direct observation and exposure to the environment on which they teach. Field study workshops are free; however, entrance fees may apply at certain facilities and you will need to provide your own lunch and transportation. In order to conduct these workshops, we must have a minimum of 15 and a maximum of 30 teachers.

For on-site and off-site teacher workshops, reservations are required at least 10 working days prior to event.
