Thank you for your interest in promoting the stewardship of Hawai'i's natural and cultural heritage. MHC’s docent training course will prepare you to begin your journey with topics including, Hawaiian history, Mānoa Valley’s transition over time, native and Polynesian-introduced plants, and traditional Hawaiian cultural practices.  Training takes place on an on-going basis.  We have developed an on-the-go training model  (dates TBD). Docent training will be entirely in-person this summer. Year-round enrichment excursions and workshops will keep life-long learning at your fingertips. In addition, docents receive special benefits such as complimentary tours for family and friends and annual appreciation parties.
