Educator in the Workplace- Professional Development 2018 

Educator in the Workplace is a program allowing educators to make connections between business and education. Over the course of 3 days educators will tour local businesses in multiple career fields. These workplace experiences will result in a better understanding of workplace environments, complex technologies used, and employer expectations. 

By giving educators the opportunity to explore the world of work, teachers can better prepare their students for meaningful career pursuits.  As a result of the class, educators will be able to identify career connections between workplace and his/her classroom, build a partnership with local businesses and education, and share meaningful experiences with students.  The class will have a culminating project with a product (lesson, presentation) that can be used by the educator in their school.
