Professional Development

Preparing the next generation of technicians to meet the expectations of a highly technological workforce can be a challenge for educators. Often, the demands of teaching within a set curriculum prevent educators from broadening their students' knowledge of workplace requirements because they need to familiarize themselves with those expectations. Educators who participate in these professional development programs can engage their students in more active learning experiences and become part of those experiences themselves.
