The goals of the Symposium are:

• to highlight the need for actionable climate information across a range of sectors, including energy, water, agriculture, and municipal planning
• to highlight the academic institutions that are developing programs to address the diverse needs for climate information
• to identify entry points for students and early-career scientists to engage in the climate information services enterprise
• to identify gaps in current knowledge, capacity and action in advancing climate information services, and the role of all institutions, including AMS, in addressing them. 

 We invite a wide range of AMS members to attend and participate, especially students and early-career scientists looking to gain further insight into this rapidly expanding field.

This session aims to bring together STEM advocates, educators, and experts who have been on the journey of creating STEM Education program to building a diverse and competent STEM workforce. The purpose of the session is to invite presentations on existing best practices funded by federal agencies (NSF, NOAA, NASA, DOE, etc.), private foundations, and industries to integrate innovative sciences into STEM education that supports the AMS 2019 theme of the three Is (Interdisciplinary, International, and Inclusive).  

The session will be co-convened by NOAA’s Educational Partnership Program with Minority Serving Institutions (EPP/MSI)−Cooperative Science Center (Dr. Shakila Merchant) and NOAA Office of Education (Dr. Marlene Kaplan).

The proposal is to create one combined session (informal and formal) or two separate sessions. One session is dedicated to presentations (oral and posters) papers from the STEM Learning Ecosystems across the nation (informal and out-of-school) and NOAA’s environmental literacy programs across the nation. The second session would include oral presentations and posters on formal education funded by agencies like NOAA, NSF, NASA, Dept. of Education, NOAA EPP/MSI Cooperative Science Centers, NSF-REU, NOAA Hollings/Undergraduate scholarships programs, and NASA-MUREP. Both sessions would also aim at including presentations (oral or posters) from private sectors/industries STEM activities such as Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, AT&T, and IBM. 

The outcome of the session is to create a community of practice network of STEM educators to continue the dialogue and collectively engage in their missions beyond AMS 2019!
