We’re thrilled to bring you a new way to connect with us —become an EiE Ambassador!
The EiE Ambassador Program is a collaborative community of passionate people who care about STEM education. We are a diverse, international group that includes educators at all levels as well as administrators and district staff who wish to connect with and support one another as we enrich our knowledge and application of STEM, engineering, computer science pedagogy and instructional practices.
