The College of Technology offers professional development credits to educators participating in "teach-the-teacher" activities before the Ignite STEM Exploration Summer Program. Educators (grades 5-12) learn STEM concepts from technical instructors, create classroom-ready lesson plans, and have the option to deliver these lessons to Ignite participants with instructor support. This program helps educators enhance skills, earn credits, and bring hands-on STEM learning to their students.

As an educator, you'll gain the following benefits in addition to earning CEUs:

A unique professional development experience, unmatched in Southeast Idaho.
Hands-on collaboration with highly qualified technical instructors.
Opportunities to work with fellow educators to create lesson plans and align camp objectives with state standards.
Potential to earn a stipend if selected to assist with the camp.
Classroom support while applying new knowledge and skills with age-appropriate students.
A network of peers to support you as you integrate STEM lessons into your curriculum.
