STEAM Professional Development Program
Through an interactive learning experience, the STEAM Professional Development Program will
transform how Early Childhood Education (ECE) teachers and directors think about STEAM. You
will learn to create dynamic learning environments for young children and promote a foundation
for STEAM that will last a lifetime. This intensive training experience takes three of the newly
developed STEAM courses at Pacific Oaks College and modifies them into a 3-day professional
development opportunity. Participants will deeply engage with theory and see firsthand how
STEAM is integrated in top ECE centers in Pasadena, California. ALL participants will learn to love
Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics!
Registration Deadline: October 5th, 2018
