Pennsylvania Project Learning Tree Facilitators

Project Learning Tree facilitators across Pennsylvania serve as local contacts for education and training for schools, youth organizations, non-formal educators, and more.

Attention: Good News!

We are currently working to update forms and resources for Pennsylvania Project Learning Tree facilitators. Please contact State Coordinator, Colleen Campion, for more information or to express interest in becoming a facilitator.

A Project Learning Tree (PLT) facilitator is a person who trains educators to use PLT materials and activities to enhance environmental education. A facilitator guides workshop participants to explore and develop as professionals, and provides them with knowledge, skills, experience, and resources to use the environment to engage children in learning. PLT facilitators are the foundation of the program and help expand its reach nationwide.

PLT Facilitator Roles and Responsibilities

To stay current as a Pennsylvania Project Learning Tree facilitator, you are expected to:

  • Plan and conduct or assist with a minimum of four educator workshops every four years, and at least one of these workshops must be a Pennsylvania Project Learning Tree workshop
  • Promote Pennsylvania Project Learning Tree throughout your region
  • Explain Pennsylvania Project Learning Tree to groups and educators and promote workshops

DCNR encourages facilitators to team up with other facilitators and resource specialists when providing trainings.
