Save the date: The 12th Biennial NOAA EPP Education and Science Forum will be held in-person on the campus of  the City College of New York (CUNY) on July 20 – 23, 2026

This year’s forum is a celebration of the Program’s 25th Anniversary.

The Biennial Education and Science Forum focuses on the important role educational partners such as the four EPP Cooperative Science Centers (CSCs)  contribute to the NOAA community. The EPP Forum supports NOAA’s objective to develop a diverse and capable workforce. Since 2001, EPP institutions have graduated over 2,000 students in NOAA mission fields.
