EVENT
SPONSORSHIP
Dear Environmental Education Supporter,
We invite you to show your support for environmental education in our state by sponsoring Kansas Association for Conservation and Environmental Education (KACEE) events this year. KACEE unites public agencies, teachers, community organizations, businesses, and individuals behind a common cause - teaching kids how to think, not what to think, about environmental issues through non-biased and science-based EE.
KACEE is a 501(c)3 organization with a vison to grow a healthy, vibrant and resilient Kansas through the power of environmental education. A portion of your sponsorship is tax deductible. Your sponsorship will be recognized in our promotions, reaching 1300+ people across Kansas.
By sponsoring our fundraising events, you will help offset costs, reduce registration fees, and provide scholarships for educators. Support for environmental education is vital for a healthy environment, vibrant economy, and successful communities.
If environmental education is something that you or your organization deeply values, sponsoring one or more of our events provides the opportunity to live your values and lead your community by example.
Thank you for your consideration!

ABOUT
eeCREDENTIALS
'eeCredentials' is short for environmental education micro-credentials.
What is a micro-credential?
Micro-credentials are a competency-based digital form of certification. They can be issued for formal and informal professional learning experiences that support educators developing skills and acquiring knowledge to improve professional practice that supports student success.
Educators identify a competency they want to develop, submit evidence that they have mastered the competency, and receive official recognition.
KACEE has developed online eeCredentials (micro-credentials) for Kansas formal and non-formal educators.
eeCredentials offer the opportunity—online and on your time—to learn how to implement environmental education into your classroom or learning experience.
Complete eeCredentials in Kansas Green Schools (KGS); Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (JEDIA); Project WET; Project WILD; Project Learning Tree (PLT); and more.
NOTE: Select eeCredentials will be offered for graduate credit through Baker University.
The Professional Environmental Educator Credential will also be offered through Pittsburg State University (PSU) for undergrad and graduate micro-certificates.
The Framework:
Credentials, Courses, and Modules
Customizable, Adaptable, Flexible
-
eeCourses can stand alone
-
eeCourses can be combined together to form an eeCredential (this can be pre-prescribed or custom - to individualize instruction)
-
eeCourses can be asynchronous, synchronous or a combination of the two and independent or cohort or a combination of the two, and all virtual or hybrid.
