Professional Development
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.
