NOAA is revising its Education
Strategic Plan as specified in the
America COMPETES Act and
subsequent legislation. Based on
NOAA’s mission, strengths, and the
future needs of our society, the draft
plan includes five education goals:
Goal 1—Science-Informed Society: An
informed society has access to, interest
in, and understanding of NOAA-related
sciences and their implications for
current and future events.
Goal 2—Conservation & Stewardship:
Individuals and communities are
actively involved in stewardship
behaviors and decisions that conserve,
restore, and protect natural and cultural
resources related to NOAA’s mission.
Goal 3—Ready, Responsive, Resilient:
Individuals and communities are ready,
responsive, and resilient to the
increasing challenges and impacts of
hazardous weather, changes in climate,
and other environmental threats
monitored by NOAA.
Goal 4—Future Workforce: A diverse
and highly skilled future workforce
pursues careers in disciplines that
support NOAA’s mission.
Goal 5—Organizational Excellence:
NOAA functions in a unified manner to
support, plan, and deliver effective
educational programs and partnerships
that advance NOAA’s mission.
NOAA welcomes comments on all
aspects of the draft Plan, including any
inconsistencies perceived within the
Plan and any omissions of important
topics or issues. This draft Plan is being
issued for comment only and is not
intended for interim use. For any
shortcomings noted within the draft
Plan, please propose specific remedies.
Suggested changes will be incorporated
where appropriate, and a final Plan will
be posted on the NOAA Education
Council website.
