How to become a Local Network Partner
Reach out to Little Scientists at hello@littlescientists.org.au or give us a call on (02) 8080 0065 to start the conversation about coming on board as a Local Network Partner.
As a Local Network Partner, you’ll designate two educators (or staff members) to become your Little Scientists trainers. These educators will then attend a Little Scientists workshop of your choice (we have 10 exciting STEM topics to choose from) delivered by one of our expert Head Trainers.
Following this, these educators will attend a special train-the-trainer workshop to learn to deliver this workshop to your network. They are then ready to deliver their first workshop!
When you’re ready, Little Scientists will create an online event for your workshop so that you can share it with your network and sell tickets. You will also be provided with marketing and promotional support to help you get the message out. But mainly, you’ll be promoting your event via word of mouth and email with your network and contacts in your area.
Little Scientists will also promote your workshops to our contacts in your area via email and social media.
Little Scientists has 10 exciting STEM workshops for your trainers to be trained in and deliver. Each workshop explores a unique STEM subject partnered with a pedagogical topic, like Water and Co-constructed Environments or Chemical Reactions and Language Development.
Little Scientists will work closely with you to build a close and supportive partnership and support your workshops and the professional development of your trainers.
Fantastic and so excited to start implementing inquiry in my classroom.
