"In light of all of the interest in background information related to
the Gulf of Mexico and the recent oil spill, NOAA's Office of Ocean
Exploration and Research and the College of Exploration will offer a
Deep Sea Ecosystems- Gulf of Mexico course October 11-29, 2010.
Registration is now open.

This offering is free for all participants and will be available 24
hours a day, 7 days a week. Educators will have the option to receive
one Professional Development Credit from California State University
at Fullerton ($100) or to obtain a certificate of completion to
reflect 10 hours of professional development. Note: Participants are
responsible for ensuring their educational institution will accept
professional development credit from California State University.

*Also don't forget Sept 25th is National Estuaries Day, a perfect day
to get in some outreach for your stewardship activities.

Hope you are all having a great start to the school year!
