Professional Development Workshops for Teachers

We are an approved Continuing Teacher and Leader Education (CTLE) Sponsor, providing high-quality professional development opportunities for K–12 educators. Our sessions are designed to strengthen STEM content knowledge, support effective classroom practice, and connect teachers with the innovative research and resources of Brookhaven National Laboratory. Through engaging, hands-on experiences, educators gain tools and insights that enhance instruction and inspire student learning.

We offer a variety of opportunities throughout the year, ranging from after-school workshops to multi-week summer experiences.

Past topics include:

• Scientific computing
• Quantum science
• Sensors in scientific investigations
• Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
• Spectroscopy/Light

*We also offer sessions for pre-service teachers, where our educators guide college students through inquiry-based elementary or secondary level activities drawn from Brookhaven National Laboratory science, followed by reflective group discussion. Elementary-level activities take place at our Science Learning Center.
