4 videos • 47 views • by Center for Excellence in Education Health Science Highway: Careers & Pathways Webinars - Learn about the science behind and many career opportunities in Health Sciences including radiology, nursing, pharmacology, and more! The Center for Excellent Education (CEE) launched the Teacher Enrichment Program (TEP) in 2012 to assure a future talented and diverse U.S. workforce in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). TEP provides opportunities for middle and high school rural and urban teachers to connect with experts from industry and academia to explore cutting-edge research and make meaningful professional links with direct benefits for their students. TEP is comprised of three components: • Bite of Science – An afterschool workshop brings together middle and high school STEM teachers with scientists and engineers from industry, academia, and government. Teachers learn about cutting-edge research and innovation, explore to connect the research to the classroom, and discover ways to inspire and guide their students toward academic opportunities and STEM careers. • Lab Bench – An interactive online resource provides access to Bite of Science and Teacher Roundtable presentations and videos, resources and low-cost activities related to Bite of Science topics, industry and teacher-contributed resources, and other helpful materials for the middle and high school STEM classroom. • Public/Private Partnerships – Connects companies, academic institutions, government agencies, and community groups with undeserved teachers. TEP increases engagement with local schools by providing classroom speakers, mentorships, field trips, and additional free resources for teachers and their students. The Center’s programs are designed to assure U.S. innovation, competitiveness, and international collaboration among the world’s STEM leaders. The Center for Excellence in Education (CEE), a nonprofit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, was founded in 1983 by the late Admiral H.G. Rickover and Joann P. DiGennaro, President of the Center. The Center’s mission is to nurture high school and university scholars to careers of excellence and leadership in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), and to encourage collaboration between and among scientific and technological leaders in the global community. CEE sponsors the Research Science Institute (RSI), USA Biolympiad (USABO), Teacher Enrichment Program (TEP), and STEM Lyceums. CEE programs are provided cost-free to participating students and teachers, thereby leveling the playing field for economically disadvantaged students. The Center’s nonprofit mission is supported by corporations, foundations, individuals, and government agencies. For more information, visit https://www.cee.org Support STEM scholars.
