9th Annual International Educators Institute


The International Educators Institute (IEI) is an intensive 8-day study tour that brings together some of the most successful classroom teachers in the US and abroad to the World Forestry Center to exchange information about utilizing best practices in forestry education. This year's group included participants from India, Australia, Taiwan, Russia, Brazil, China, Korea, Norway, Mexico, New Zealand, South Carolina, Oregon, and Idaho. Past participants have called this unique educational opportunity the highlight of their professional career. Participants have taken home countless new techniques and resources and made many new friends for life. Participants in IEI return to their classrooms with new tools, new inspiration, and an active global network of colleagues and resource specialists. Click on the group photo for more pictures.
