Join other high school teachers for 3 days of professional development on the Bellingham Technical College campus.
Workshops are designed for both academic and CTE instructors wanting to enhance their instructional practice with applied learning opportunities. There are many workshop options to choose from -- all designed to help teachers expand their skills related to teaching "industry standards" and workplace expectations. All workshops are taught by highly qualified college instructors with extensive business and industry experience.
Due to the small class size (maximum of 12 per workshop), early registration is strongly advised! Registration deadline is June 1, 2008. A purchase order or paid registration will confirm a seat in your selected workshop.
