Posting positions is open to all organizations in environmental education and related fields. As a benefit to our organizational members, posting is free. Other organizations may post for a small fee for 60 days. Those interested in posting should contact AEEA at info@arkansasee.org.
AEEA endorses the Southeast Environmental Education Alliance’s guidance document on equitable pay and hiring. The eeGuidance for Equitable Pay & Hiring provides recommendations and suggestions that are relevant across the country.
AEEA recognizes that we have work to do in becoming more equitable in our pay and hiring practices. We encourage other organizations and agencies within the state to join us in making changes where and when we can.
Environmental and outdoor education is a critical field for our future, and the changes we make in hiring and pay will help ensure our profession grows to meet the challenges ahead.
