What are the major goals CEE has for the Flying WILD program?
As an environmental education organization, CEE is interested in educating about a variety of environmentally related topics, including but not limited to, wildlife and water. Beyond the youth education component of Flying WILD, CEE seeks to build more capacity for environmental education nationally. The Flying WILD program is one vehicle that can be used to help accomplish this goal. By developing a network of city and community partners for Flying WILD, CEE seeks to activate more institutions and individuals to become further engaged in environmental education efforts. At the same time, we hope to increase both the staffing and funding dedicated to environmental education nationally. Another goal involves providing professional development and networking opportunities for bird educators. The goal is to increase the number of individuals involved in bird education activities, the quality of bird education offerings, and the efficiency of national, state and local bird education effort
