Blue Economy Experiential Educational Resources Workshop

---

February 28th, 2026, The Connecticut Blue Economy Coalition organized a workshop for educators to expose them to a variety of experiential learning resources to help students learn more about the blue economy. Attendees got to hear from two panels, 1.) Blue Economy Educator's Resources, and 2.) Blue Economy Workforce Panel. Additionally, educators got to see hands-on experiential learning tools that were presented by a number of participating organizations. With close to 100 registered, it was a great day to learn more about all the resources in CT for our students. 

Many thanks to our generous sponsor: The CT Port Authority.
