The Center for Excellence in Education is hosting a teacher workshop called “Engaging Students in STEM: Hands-On Learning and Real World Applications” on June 24, 2019 at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA for about 100 middle and high school STEM teachers. The goals of the event are to provide teachers with information about various STEM careers, skills and cutting-edge research, as well as, a variety of engaging, low-cost activities and labs they can bring to their classroom in the fall.


The VCU School of Education recognizes the importance of multiple pathways for entrance into the teaching profession and for attaining teaching licensure credentials. The VCU Pathways to Teaching: Career Switcher Program is an accelerated educator preparation program that will move prospective teachers into the classroom early, as a full-time teacher, earning a salary, while working with experienced teachers and university education faculty. If you know of someone who would be an amazing teacher who is looking for a career change, please share our exciting new program!
