Science Teacher Workshop
Did you know that over one-third of Canada's ag-biotech industry is located in Saskatchewan?
The Science Teacher Workshop is a professional development opportunity for educators to learn more about the fascinating world of ag-biotech in our province. Expand your own understanding of biotechnology so you can confidently answer student questions, easily connect real-life examples to text book examples, and inspire your students to consider a career in biosciences!
