The Texas Environmental Education Advisory Committee (TEEAC) helps assure that professional development in environmental education aligns to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS).

Upon request, the committee may also advise the commissioner on environmental education issues.

The TEEAC Annual Providers' meeting brings together representatives from zoos, museums, and nature centers to learn about state curriculum issues and initiatives.
