My organization wants to sponsor classes

Organization sponsors are expected to:

  • Develop a course outline, with a minimum of 8, 3-hour sessions focused on core curriculum topics
  • Select qualified instructors for each course
  • Provide publicity for the course

Application Process for Sponsoring a Class

To begin the process of sponsoring an Indiana Master Naturalist class, please review our IMN Curriculum and Host Manual. This great resource guide will provide an overview of the program, introduce you to the types of classes you should offer and the broad course objectives you should plan to meet for each session, provide you with a step-by-step guide to planning a workshop, and give you a one-stop summary of all the forms and materials you will need.

After you review the manual, fill out an IMN Workshop application (pdf) and send it in to the State Coordinator. After your application is reviewed and approved by the Advisory Council, you will be able to begin publicity for your workshop.
