In a truly collaborative fashion, NOAA educators, staff, and leadership combined efforts with the broader education and resource management community, nongovernmental organizations, teachers, and interested citizens to produce this blueprint for NOAA’s future work in education. In addition to the contributions the NOAA Education Council members, special thanks are extended to the following individuals for their contributions to this document: Bree Turner, Bronwen Rice, Bruce Moravchik, Carla Wallace, Carrie McDougall, Chris Maier, Christopher Nelson, Dan Pisut, Elizabeth McMahon, Eric Hackathorn, Ginger Hinchcliff, Jeannine Montgomery, John Baek, John McLaughlin, Jon Lilley, June Teisan, Kate Thompson, Katya Wowk, Kristen Jabanoski, Leah Henry, Lisa Hiruki-Raring, Lisa Nakamura, LuAnn Dahlman, Maia McGuire, Patrick Drupp, Robert Hansen, Sarah Schoedinger, Seaberry Nachbar, Sepp Haukebo, Stacey Rudolph, and Susan Haynes. Lastly, the following individuals deserve a special acknowledgement and sincere thanks for their pivotal roles in developing this document: Valerie Williams and Steve Stork masterminded the intellectual framework of the plan and Marissa Jones turned the framework into a published document.  \nWe would like to thank the NOAA offices, programs, employees, partners, and grantees for contributing images for this document. The images represent a sampling of the many activities, audiences, and settings that make up the current educational programs of NOAA and its partners. Individual image credits are listed in the reference section of this document.  \nDear Partners and Friends of NOAA Education,  \nWe live on a dynamic planet with environments and ecosystems in transition. Communities around the world are becoming more vulnerable to natural disasters and long-term adverse environmental changes. There is growing pressure on our natural resources.  \nAs we face these challenges, we strive to become more resilient to them. NOAA provides timely, reliable, and actionable information—based on sound science—to help the Nation make smart decisions that impact the future of society, the economy, and the environment. At NOAA, we call this“environmental intelligence” and producing it is at the core of our mission.  \nMaking use of environmental intelligence requires the foresight to build a foundation of understanding when the sky is clear and the ocean is calm. For this reason, NOAA invests in education to expand the public’s understanding and stewardship of Earth systems. These education efforts take place across the country, supporting NOAA’s mission in creative and innovative ways.  \nCongress recognized the importance of NOAA’s education programs with the passage of the America COMPETES Act. The Act gives NOAA broad education authority and directs NOAA to develop an Education Strategic Plan with a 20-year horizon to be updated every five years.  \nIn this update of our strategic plan, we take a fresh look at our programs and priorities to better reflect the broad scope of NOAA Education. We maintain our focus on a science-informed society and workforce development, while highlighting our unique role in safety, preparedness, conservation, and stewardship.  \nThe strategic plan represents an agency-wide effort with significant input from our external partners. Such partnerships are critical to our success, and we work closely with formal and informal educational institutions, businesses, non-governmental organizations, and concerned individuals who dedicate their time to supporting our mission. Through extensive focus and collaboration, we have crafted a strategic plan that guides us and allows us to track our progress.  \nWe thank you for your support for NOAA Education. We look forward to working with you to improve our Nation’s ability to protect life and property a","cbCaiccALukPMnMe","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiccALukPMnMe","pdf",4098891,"English","# Acknowledgments\n# NOAA Education Council Commitment\n# Goals\n## Goal 3: Safety and Preparedness\n## Goal 4: Future Workforce\n## Goal 5: Organizational Excellence\n# Implementation\n# Evaluation and Monitoring\n# Image Credits","[{\"question\":\"Who contributed to developing the NOAA Education strategic plan?\",\"answer\":\"The plan credits NOAA educators, staff, leadership, external education and resource management communities, partners, nongovernmental organizations, teachers, and citizens, along with specific named individuals.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the NOAA education investment described in the document?\",\"answer\":\"It aims to expand public understanding and stewardship of Earth systems by using environmental intelligence grounded in sound science.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the plan respond to environmental and societal challenges?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes becoming more resilient by providing timely, reliable, actionable information and by focusing education efforts on safety, preparedness, conservation, and stewardship.\"}]","NOAA Education Strategic Plan - Acknowledgments and Goals | PDF",1792054646]
