罢丑别听Outreach Training Program (OTP)聽helps ACS members across the globe who are passionate about science outreach to fully maximize 中国365bet中文官网 resources through in-person workshops, live online courses, or on-demand courses. The OTP builds upon the success of ACS Outreach programs: National Chemistry Week,听Chemists Celebrate Earth Week, International Chemistry Festivals, and the Festival Training Institute. Our members and chemistry enthusiasts conduct science outreach, and the OTP is here to help you get involved!

Program Description
The OTP includes seven parts that teach the history of ACS Outreach, safety, event planning, communication, marketing, leading volunteers, and monitoring success. The courses are reviewed and updated on a regular basis by members of the ACS Committee on Community Activites. Participants will learn to successfully plan and execute outreach events, as well as have an opportunity to network and build a community with others passionate about science outreach and ACS.
鈥淚t was a great day of meeting and talking with others who are passionate about reaching out to share their excitement and knowledge of chemistry! The workshop leaders did an excellent job conveying information about resources and best practices for holding a successful outreach event.鈥�

"I have been doing outreach for more than 25 years and have a very good handle on what and how to present to children and adults, but the training made me realize that I was just about totally ignorant about how marketing and partnering could improve outcomes of programs into which I invest significant time and effort.聽 I was also unaware of some of the wonderful resources that ACS makes available to folks doing outreach."
Rose Pesce-Rodriguez, CCEW Coordinator, Maryland Local Section
