Professional Development

Artist's Palette

The Death Valley Education Team enjoys partnering with school districts, non-profit organizations, and universities to provide professional development opportunities for teachers. We have hosted for-credit, field-based courses in geology, and look forward to expanding our repertoire to include climate change, botany, phenology, astronomy, visual and performing arts, environmental education pedagogy, and many other subjects in the future. Contact the Education Specialist if you are interested in using Death Valley as a site for professional development, or if you would like a ranger to participate in your off-site workshop.
