Teaching Students Outdoors (TSO) and
Mini Teaching Students Outdoors (Mini TSO)

Who is it for? Educators who want to teach students outdoors in nearby nature. 

What will you do?

  • Grow your knowledge about nature-based learning’s benefits 

  • Gain skills in planning and preparation, site selection, risk management, outdoor classroom management, and more!
