Science Equipment Training 

The Science Outreach Program seeks to partner with local area K-12 educators to provide training on how to use our scientific equipment effectively and safely. Training events may include workshops on how to create lessons and operate our star lab, spectrophotometers, microscopes, and more. View our upcoming training workshop events below.

Star Lab Training: Learn how to use our inflatable dome and projector to teach lessons on astronomy, cell biology, bird migration patterns, and more! More information to come in Fall 2026.
