Inland Seas Education Association Designated Certified Autism Center

The Inland Seas Education Association earned its designation as a Certified Autism Center, demonstrating its commitment to providing accessible and inclusive educational experiences focused on learning about and protecting the essential functions of the Great Lakes.

“The Inland Seas Education Association firmly believes that all individuals should have the opportunity to experience the majesty of our Great Lakes. We are thrilled that training through IBCCES will help us provide hands-on education in alignment with the latest advancements in autism support,” says Fred Sitkins, executive director of ISEA.
