To meet the challenges and opportunities of our rapidly changing world, the next generation of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Design, and Mathematics) leaders and innovators must harness the full spectrum of available resources. Only through collaboration across cultures, disciplines, sectors, regions and gender can we collectively support skill development for all Canadians. The 2018 STAN Conference will explore how STEAM teaching and learning is evolving and emphasize the importance of collaboration. Click here for more information and to register.

The Classrooms to Communities (C2C) workshop will take place in Cranbrook and Fernie. This is an opportunity to help inspire, support and enhance the ongoing and evolving work of K-12 teachers in British Columbia School Communities to integrate Place-based Education as best practice. It is an invitation for school district staff and community partners to learn, share, connect and collaborate together to support Place-based Learning. This workshop is a collaboration between the East Kootenay Environmental Educators Provincial Specialist Association (EKEEPSA), the Kootenay-Boundary Environmental Education Initiative (KBEE) and the Columbia Basin Environmental Education Network (CBEEN).
