Becoming a Facilitator

Certified WET Educators can take their involvement to the next level by becoming a Project WET Facilitator. After completing an extensive, fun, and engaging 2-day Facilitator Workshop, Facilitators are given the tools and resources to lead Educator Workshops. 

Facilitators are an important and essential part of our network for Georgia Project WET!  Individuals trained as a facilitator will be equipped with knowledge about how to lead activities in the curriculum guides as well as all the best practices for hosting your own Project WET educator workshop.  If your job involves public programming or professional development training throughout the year, becoming a facilitator may be right for you!  Facilitators often work as preservice education professors, extension educators, museum/nature center staff, natural resource professionals, water utility public education staff, school district curriculum specialists, and more. 

Requirements of Facilitators:

• Plan and conduct a minimum of one professional development event per year
• Work with your state coordinator to schedule, plan, and announce Project WET trainings or events
• Complete and submit all necessary paperwork
• Represent Project WET in a professional manner
• Be objective and scientifically accurate
• Work collaboratively with other facilitators and partners to meet the needs of educators in your community

About Facilitator Workshops

Georgia Project WET Facilitator Workshops are held at least once per year and are led by the Georgia Project WET state coordinators. They can also be scheduled upon request for a minimum of 12 participants. They are often combined with Projects WILD and Learning Tree for triple EE facilitator certification in one workshop! Contact us for more information.
