Penn State Extension is hosting a four-part online Educator Training Course series on Carbon Incentives for Forest Owners on March 8, 15, 22 and 29.

This course series will prepare educators to answer three critical questions forest owners have about carbon markets: (1) how do I manage forest carbon? (2) what is a fair price for forest carbon? and (3) what do I need to consider before signing a carbon contract?

The course includes four modules delivered over four weeks. Activities include assigned readings and live discussions with experts in forest carbon each week.

Participants must complete all assignments to receive a certificate of completion, continuing education credits, and the opportunity to apply for a Forest Owner Carbon Climate Education (FOCCE) grant. 

To ensure this, we recommend you dedicate 2-3 hours per week to reviewing materials, completing short assessments, and participating in the live discussions.
