The National Marine Sanctuary Foundation, in cooperation with NOAA Ocean Exploration, is excited to offer grants to educators and education programs leading workforce development initiatives that advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility within ocean science and/or exploration career pathways. The overarching goal is to support a future ocean workforce that is more representative of US demographics by funding projects that minimize barriers to entry and retention of diverse learners from communities historically marginalized from ocean science and exploration industries.  The Ocean Odyssey Grants are an investment in projects and partners that are leading science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education programming for diverse youth in middle school, high school, undergraduate, and/or community college to learn about the ocean, develop or advance STEM skills, and increase awareness of ocean science and exploration careers.

The classroom is an excellent setting to bring the wonder of ocean science and exploration alive, deepen students' understanding of ocean sciences, increase their awareness of ocean careers, and to help students develop STEM skills needed for future education and career demands.
