2026 Conference Testimonials

"AMAZING PD!!!! My sessions were phenomenal, and the keynotes uplifted my spirit. I was filled with hope and action."
"Being with like-minded, forward-thinking educators who care deeply for children's and this world's well-being was incredibly restorative. This came through in the fantastic keynotes and the many conversations between events."
"This is the BEST conference I have ever attended. In 15 years of teaching, that is saying something. For the first time, I left the conference feeling full of ideas and HOPE. Typically, I feel frazzled and totally spent after such things."
"The most valuable thing was being amongst other educators from the whole spectrum, early years through post-secondary, and realizing we are all passionate about the same thing and being met with similar barriers. A huge feeling of not being alone."
"The practical lessons, skills, and resources that were provided were most useful as a teacher; I can bring these ideas literally into my classroom the next day. The openness and inclusion of people with diverse cultural backgrounds was heartwarming and uplifting. As a coloured person myself, it was one of the first conferences I ever attended where I felt fully accepted, included, and felt a sense of belonging. It broadened my horizons and gave me extra motivation to keep doing what I am doing."

2025 Conference Testimonials

The #OLC2025 provided and excellent opportunity to learn new skills that appeal to all educators across grade levels - all of whom should be getting outside. The variety of learning opportunities was vast and I took away many applicable lesson ideas that I've already used in my classes, and I can't wait to build my outdoor learning program into students' favourite experiences at school!
The Outdoor Learning Conference was the most enriching experience I've had in my teaching career. Sharing the essentials of learning in nature allows us to provide authentic and essential learning experiences for children. A huge thank you!
Incredible conference. The welcoming prayers by Blackfoot Elder Sylvia Fox, the keynote speakers, the workshop sessions, the people, the land, and the site itself. All came together for three days of learning, reflecting, and connecting. A do-not-miss conference for outdoor educators of any type!
I have been to many conference and the Outdoor Learning Conference absolutely stands out. The conference is extremely well run, the workshops and keynote talks are engaging and edifying and the location, well, it couldn't be more beautifully appropriate for bringing outdoor educators together. I feel very lucky to have attended and thanks to the OLC, I am a better educator.

If you have any questions, please contact conference@takemeoutside.ca

Mac Walsh

Mac Walsh (they/he) is an autistic, transmasculine young adult. Growing up autistic and queer with both their own mental and physical health challenges, as well as the loss of their younger sister to a complex mental health battle, provides them with a unique, deeply personal lens when it comes to helping others.

Throughout their journey, Mac has found themselves navigating the intersectional identities of disability, queerness, grief, and mental health. Driven by lived experience, they strive to be the representation they needed growing up by sharing their story of hope and resilience, helping others feel less alone and empowered to embrace their authentic selves.

They are passionate about fostering belonging and highlighting the transformative power of the right support. Through adaptive sports, Mac discovered a world of possibility. What once felt out of reach became a space of confidence, connection, and community, reinforcing that access is not about lowering expectations, but about removing barriers and building environments where everyone can thrive.

Mac has collaborated on panels and advocacy initiatives with organizations including ISABC, AutismBC, Easter Seals Alberta, and Canmore Pride. They are a graduate of the Education Assistant Program at Bow Valley College and were recently a cast member in Season 1 of CBC’s The Assembly. In their spare time, Mac enjoys building Lego, playing trombone and trying all things adaptive!

2027 Call for Workshop Proposals

Applications open October 9 – November 23, 2026

We invite educators, practitioners, researchers, Indigenous Knowledge Keepers and others working in outdoor learning to submit workshop proposals for the 2027 Outdoor Learning Conference, taking place May 6-8, 2027 in Banff, Alberta.

What are we looking for?

We are particularly interested in workshops that:

  • Explore outdoor learning as a teaching practice that can be integrated into everyday educational experiences.
  • Offer practical strategies, approaches and ideas that educators can adapt to their own classrooms, schools and communities.
  • Engage participants through hands-on experiences, active learning, reflection and meaningful discussion.
  • Go beyond introductory activities to deepen educators' understanding and practice of outdoor learning.
  • Reflect diverse perspectives, educational settings, geographic contexts and ways of knowing.

While outdoor learning is the overarching focus of the conference, we particularly welcome proposals connected to one or more of our three focus areas:

  • Indigenous Perspectives & Ways of Knowing
  • Health & Wellbeing
  • Environmental & Climate Change Education

We encourage proposals from both experienced and emerging facilitators. You do not need to have presented at a conference before to offer valuable knowledge, experience and ideas.

Workshop format

Workshops are 75 minutes in length and take place primarily outdoors, rain or shine. We encourage presenters to design sessions that make meaningful use of the outdoor environment, rather than simply relocate an indoor presentation outside.

A limited number of indoor/outdoor hybrid sessions may be considered where the format is essential to the learning experience.

Important information for presenters

  • Application deadline: November 23, 2026.
  • Selection decisions: Applicants will be notified by early January 2027.
  • Presenter registration: All presenters are required to register for the conference. Registration spaces will be reserved for accepted presenters who have not already registered.
  • Honorarium: A $250 honorarium will be provided per accepted workshop, regardless of the number of presenters.
  • Travel and accommodation: Presenters are responsible for their own travel, accommodation and other expenses. Limited financial subsidies are available. Please contact conference@takemeoutside.ca to discuss financial barriers to participation.
  • Registration refunds: If you register for the conference and your workshop proposal is not accepted, you may request a full registration refund if you no longer wish to attend.
  • Presenter orientation: Accepted presenters will be asked to attend a virtual orientation session in March or April 2027, or watch the recording if unable to attend.

We receive many thoughtful proposals each year and carefully review every submission. We appreciate the time and effort involved in sharing your expertise and experiences with the outdoor learning community.
