“The learning experiences we were exposed to were unlike any other teacher professional development I’ve had in my eighteen years of teaching. Being able to meet professionals and experts both in the classroom and in the field were opportunities that allowed us to see the different parts of the resource extraction cycle and ask questions of said experts.”
“The mining tours continue to be among the very best professional development I have attended in my fourteen-year career. I am heading into the fall feeling re-energised with new ideas. I hope you will continue to support this program in the future, so that more teachers can return to the classroom and inspire students.”
