FLATE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

FLATE Professional Development for technical faculty and educators in STEM curriculum provides opportunities to develop, refine or certify their knowledge base within manufacturing and/or its related enabling technologies and educational pedagogies. Workshops take advantage of the summer break for educators and are offered by request throughout the year to college faculty and K-12 teachers. Workshops included the annual FLATE Summer Institute, Annual FLATE Summer Camp for Teachers, and hands-on workshops featuring Robotics and automation, Additive Manufacturing, Alternative Energy, and recruiting girls to STEM careers.

FLATE also partners for professional development with other organizations including FACTE, The Florida Association of Industrial and Technology Education (FAITE), the Able Trust, the USF Stavros Center, Florida Career Pathway Network (FCPN), the National Career Pathway Network (NCPN), SkillsUSA-FL, some equipment vendors and a number of conferences including HITEC.
