Key Leaders are an integral part of the Wisconsin Science Network. They are a strong network of professionals that share information, accomplishments, and expertise through the network and through direct contact with other Key Leaders and colleagues. Key Leaders provide data and feedback about the impact of Wisconsin and national directions in science education. As the leader of a Point of Contact sharing community, Key Leaders assist in information dissemination and gathering, and in maintaining an accurate WSN database. Key Leaders are selected based on their demonstrated state and national leadership.
