Testimonials

D. Semeyn

Educator

“Throughout the course of my education in various careers, I have done many certification courses. By the end, I always have gained knowledge, and often skills, but many courses lack implementation. Once I have passed all the requirements, often I am left wondering, “what next?”. In completing this course, I have gained knowledge and skills but also have created a custom plan for my school. I have concrete and customized takeaways that I am already using successfully. Not only do I know exactly what is next, but I am confident that I can do it!”

C. Badman

Educator

"The program's greatest strength was the requirement to create a full suite of strategic plans. I developed a Program Accessibility Plan, a Professional Development Plan, a Comprehensive Plan for Implementing PLCs, and a Communication Plan. These were not abstract assignments; they were living documents designed to be immediately implementable. By creating these plans, I gained practical experience in needs assessment, goal setting, resource allocation, and program evaluation. I now have a clear roadmap for this school year and beyond, which will allow me to hit the ground running and make an immediate impact."

STEM Certification Cohort FAQs

What is the goal of the SCC?

The goal of the SCC Program is to train leaders who can develop a culture of STEM through integrated, hands-on, inquiry-based learning in their educational institution, district, and community.

What is the format of the certification?

  • Two Lab Days, held on consecutive days (12 hours total)

  • Ten Asynchronous eLearning Modules (~2 hours per module)

  • Four Coaching Sessions (PLCs) (1 hour per session)

  • Portfolio Submission (~2 hours)

    • Approximate Total Time Commitment: 40 Hours

    What is the cost of the certification?

    The registration fees are $1,295 per person, paid via Purchase Order. The participant’s seat is not held in the cohort until a Purchase Order is received. Registration fees must be paid before the Cohort Start Date. If applicable, please check with your district’s entitlement funds to ensure compliance.

    Will I receive a certificate with professional development hours?

    Yes, a certificate and virtual badge will be issued upon completing a passing portfolio.

    Are the two Lab Days held in person or are they virtual?

    The two-day lab is only offered in person. Attendance is mandatory on both dates to receive certification.

    There are no refunds if you are unable to attend both days. However, you will have the one-time option to transfer your registration to a new cohort within one year from your originally scheduled Cohort Start Date.

    Can I resubmit my work if I receive below an 80% on my portfolio or do not pass the course?

    You are allowed one additional attempt within 90 days from your original portfolio submission to improve your grade and pass. There is no fee for resubmission within 90 days.

     

    What if I (the participant) leave the school that paid for my certification and want to continue in the program?

    This would have to be worked out between the school and the staff member.

    How does the program help participants become leaders in STEM?

    The program helps participants understand STEM programming from a systems level, how to effectively and holistically integrate and assess STEM practices, plan professional learning aligned to educators’ needs, and create vibrant professional learning communities to sustain STEM integration.

    What if I start in one cohort and need or want to switch to another cohort?

    What if a school/district pays for a participant and the staff member leaves the school? Can their seat in the program be transferred to another person?

    Seats may be transferred as long as the cohort has not yet begun. You may transfer the seat to a cohort date different from the originally selected one, but it must have a start date within one year of the original cohort start date for which your school initially registered.
