Professional Development
GGC’s Education team realizes the importance of ensuring educators have access to professional development events and workshops enhancing their knowledge of genetics. All programming is aligned with South Carolina science standards and can be tailored to fit your needs.
- Professional Development Opportunities
The GGC Division of Education is available to coordinate and conduct workshops for teachers in your school or district. These events and conferences can be full day or half-day events and will focus on relevant genetic content. This is ideal for middle or high school science teachers and can be tailored to the specific needs of your group. - Teacher Workshops
The GGC Division of Education offers two day in-person workshops packed with hands-on activities to enhance teachers’ genetic education. Educators will learn engaging lab and classroom activities they can take back to their schools.
For more information about the professional development opportunities, please contact Leta M. Tribble, PhD, at (864)943.4170 or lmt@ggc.org.
