NYSOEA 58th Annual Conference 11/5-11/8/2026

The Annual NYSOEA Conference brings together hundreds of teachers, environmental educators, nature center staff, and administrators from across New York and neighboring states for three days of high-quality professional development. Attendees can experience the conference for the day, or spend the weekend with educators from all over New York State and beyond. This conference is so much more than workshops and sharing of resources, but engages a strong network of educators with passion for supporting outdoor experiences and education throughout the state. 

Registration opens July 6, 2026.
