This summer, the NDE and UNL have partnered to offer three professional development workshops on elementary STEM, secondary math and secondary Earth science for teachers through Nebraska Partnership TEAMS in five cities across the state.

Teachers can apply as a "solo" teacher - no district teams necessary as we fill the last remaining spots. Teachers are paid a stipend of $15 per hour of class (for up to $1,200). You can choose to earn 3 graduate credits from UNL for taking the course, and you could choose to apply your stipend toward tuition and fees (about $785).

Teachers who live more than 35 miles one-way from their TEAMS site will receive mileage reimbursement of $0.54 per mile for commuting to class. Lodging is available to teachers who live
more than 70 miles one-way from their TEAMS site.

The courses will be held June 5-9 and 12-16, 2017 (both weeks are required) from approximately 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and four Saturdays during the school year (TBD by your regional group).
