Registration Opens For ABYC Educator Training Conference

The ABYC Foundation announced their second Educator Training Conference, to be held July 20 to 22, in a virtual format. The “train-the-trainer” event is designed for high school and post-secondary instructors and administrators who are either teaching, or are thinking about teaching marine service in their schools, as well as boating industry leaders who want to connect with these influencers.

The Educator Training Conference will open July 20 with a virtual happy hour, followed by sessions on both July 21 and 22, with every session hosting Q&A. Based on input from marine service teachers, the agenda is designed around three main topics: professional development, industry insights, and guidance for hands-on learning in the classroom.

The ABYC Foundation is seeking industry sponsorships at a $1,000 level, as well as donated product door prizes. As an early-bird incentive, all who register by May 15, will receive free access to ABYC’s online learning course “Basic Marine Electrical and Corrosion Mitigation.”
