Our Mission... The Center leads awareness of and access to information about Great Lakes environmental subjects by promoting learning links for teachers, students and other stakeholders in the international Great Lakes-St. Lawrence basin ecosystem.

The Center for Great Lakes Environmental Education is an informational resource which is designed to provide access to Great Lakes educational material, as well as to identify and address teacher training needs. This web site is a first step to provide educators, both formal and non-formal, with centralized access to educational information on the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence basin electronically. Implementation of a full range of services offered through the Center is continually underway, so please keep watching this site for information on future developments.
