Fishing Education Instructor Certification Workshop
April 1, 2023 @ 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM
Who: 4-H volunteers/educators, classroom teachers, community center staff, fishing club members and more!
What: This training will certify you as a Fishing Education Instructor and provide you with tips and materials to lead fishing programs. We’ll even go fishing to do some practice teaching. Successful program models include 4-H projects, adult education, community fishing outings, meet-ups for young adults, after-school fishing clubs, summer enrichment classes, day camps, school-family events, and helping scouts earn merit badges. More information on this certificate can be found on the Wisconsin DNR website.
When: Saturday, April 1st from 9 am-3 pm.
Accommodations: This event will be hosted inside an ADA-accessible building with free parking. We will spend some time fishing outside which may require traversing up to half a mile over uneven terrain. If you need to request accommodations such as printed presentation slides, language interpreters, all-terrain wheelchairs or something else, please reach out to Rachael Lewandowski-Sarette by emailing lewandowskis@wisc.edu or calling 608-890-1137
