Educators work with our nation’s most important resource – its human capital of children and young people who become scientists, engineers, business experts, artists, professional, workers, and leaders of tomorrow. To do their job well, educators, especially those who aspire to the role of change agent and innovator, need recognition and support for their exceptional efforts.
They also need challenging professional development courses and leadership experience. Finally, it is important to be connected to a network of colleagues to share ideas and swap tips, events to meet and mingle with fellow entrepreneurial educators, as well as resources for projects and curricula.
In its first five years, the 3E Institute has worked with more than 300 entrepreneurial educators from K-12 schools across southeastern Pennsylvania. We offer exciting opportunities for entrepreneurial-minded educators.
