Teacher Training is a major component of the Infinity Project. We understand that to effectively teach engineering and advanced technology at the high school level, teachers must be supplied with more than an innovative curriculum and modern equipment. Teachers must also have access to world-class training that directly helps them teach the material and operate the equipment in a classroom setting.

To fill this important need, the Infinity Project offers training for all teachers of the new engineering curriculum by experts in the curriculum. The teacher training covers the basics of the course material as well as the basics of the Infinity Technology Kit.

Our Infinity Training Institute is 40 hours long and conducted over a one-week period. Our institute has been designed to be very hands-on for the instructors. And, teachers new to technology will be given extensive opportunity to work with the equipment and apply the new material to real problems in a supportive and fun environment.
