William Jessup University's Pacific Forest Institute is dedicated to providing hands-on, inquiry based science and environmental education to educators, who in turn pass on this vital information to their students. Educators are invited to apply for Pacific Forest Institute's free week-long workshops at Hidden Lakes: Earth and Environmental Science for Educators, June 28 to July 3, 2009; Forest Ecology for Educators, July 26 to July 31, 2009. Some dates for Spring Weekend Workshops at William Jessup University are set and others will be announced soon.
