Available Now -- Let FERN connect you with more learners!

[Cailey Meuse - Elements Society]

Hello All!

Elements Society is excited to announce Find Educational Resources Now (FERN) is now available in beta. FERN is a platform designed to connect more learners to environmental educational programs like yours!

Enhance your visibility and attract interest from teachers and learners by adding your programs to FERN. It’s quick, easy, and free for the first year using the code fern24.

Why FERN?
1. Many organizations struggle to find the time and resources to market their programs to teachers, so let FERN do it for you.
2. Teachers don't have time to filter through dozens of Google searches to find the programs suitable for their classroom needs.
3. By establishing a centralized directory, over time we can analyze gaps and prepare reports that can help organizations make a case for new programming, funding, etc.

 
Our hope is that FERN brings the environmental education community together to ensure that regardless of where learners are across BC & Alberta they'll have access to environmental education opportunities. Join FERN and strengthen your program impact TODAY!

Note, FERN is currently in beta, if you have any feedback or challenges when adding your program listings please let us know by contacting fe...@elements-society.org.

If you know of an organization that would benefit from FERN please forward this email.

Many thanks,

Hi Everyone!

It's been a couple months since we launched the beta version of FERN - Find Educational Resources Now, a free, searchable database of environmental programs and resources for all of BC and Alberta. We are so excited with how things have been progressing and we will be launching things more fulsomely on Jan 28th. 

We have a lot of organizations already signed up, but we know there are lots more out there that aren't yet represented on the database. Our hope is that FERN brings the environmental education community together to ensure that regardless of where learners are across BC & Alberta they'll have access to the resources, programs and opportunities they deserve and need. So ahead of our launch on Jan 28th, we need your help to make this database as comprehensive as possible. If you are from an organization that has programs or resources to offer, head to FERN yourself and create your listing. And if you know other organizations, please forward this email on them! Adding a listing is easy and free and will strengthen your program impact today.

Thank you in advance and please reach out to myself or Elements at fe...@elements-society.org any time with any questions or concerns you might have. 

Sincerely,

Cailey Meuse (she/her)
