Kit Training Sessions
Recognizing that the Beckman@Science training needs vary greatly from district to district, the districts participating in the Beckman@Science initiative have graciously offered to share their training sessions with other Beckman districts on a space-available basis. If you or your district is interested in sending a teacher to one of these training sessions, pleased contact your District Coordinator to make appropriate arrangements. Unless informed to the contrary, the districts offering the trainings will not provide the training materials during or following the training sessions. If you are in need of a Beckman Certified Kit Specialist, please visit Beckman Kit Specialists to learn more about the rigorous standards used for selecting the trainers, as well as a complete listing of the trainers and their kit specialty. |
