Many Thanks to the NGPF Ambassadors Who Presented in 2024

In 2024, the NGPF Ambassadors for Professional Development presented at 42 external conferences nationwide, providing professional development to over 770 teachers. The program has grown since its inception in 2023 from 39 to over 50 teachers ready to facilitate NGPF sessions across the country. Please join us in thanking and celebrating these wonderful teachers for their efforts and presentations in 2024!

Looking ahead in 2025, NGPF hopes to continue with the NGPF Ambassador program. While we are not actively seeking out more Ambassadors on a nationwide scale, we are certainly open to an active NGPF teacher wanting to reach out to us about a conference where they’d like to facilitate an NGPF session. Please email chris@ngpf.org for more information.
