This seminar will focus on America’s westward expansion and its “Manifest Destiny” to expand from sea to shining sea. This seminar will consider the purposes for westward expansion, Jackson’s Indian Removal Policy and westward expansion’s impact on slavery. This program will be conducted as a discussion, utilizing primary source documents as the only readings, and with the Discussion Leader facilitating the conversation, instead of lecturing or presenting. Registrants, therefore, are highly encouraged to read all the documents in advance and come ready with questions.

This training will be held on October 28, 2025 from 8:55 a.m. - 2:15 p.m. at the ROE #3 Professional Development Center. The seminar is FREE to attend and lunch will be provided thanks to the Teaching American History program. Registration will begin at 8:30 a.m. Each participant will receive 5.0 PD hours upon completion of the program.
