Published On: March 18, 2021Categories: Events, Industry News

The American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) Foundation’s second Educator Training Conference will be held July 20-22, 2021, in a virtual format. The “train-the-trainer” event is designed for high school and post-secondary instructors and administrators who either are teaching, or are thinking about teaching marine service in their schools, as well as boating industry leaders who want to connect with these influencers.

Based on input from marine service teachers, the agenda is designed around three main topics: professional development, industry insights and guidance for hands-on learning in the classroom.

The ABYC Foundation is seeking industry sponsorships at a $1,000 level, as well as donated product door prizes. Several industry publications including Boating Industry Magazine, Professional Boatbuilder Magazine and Soundings Trade Only are supporting the event by providing free subscriptions to all registrants.

As an early-bird incentive, all who register by May 15, 2021, will receive free access to ABYC’s online learning course “Basic Marine Electrical and Corrosion Mitigation.”
