Smart Board Training

In response to many requests from Academy members and teachers around the state. The ETTC at EIRC has planned several Smart Board workshops.  These workshops are completely interactive and participants will be building lessons to use with their students in addition to learning useful "Smart Board" skills. The workshops cover a wide variety of skills and topics.

They are limited to 15 - 20 participants so if you are interested please sign up soon as possible -  they tend to fill up very quickly.

All workshops are from 8:30 am until 1:30 pm. They are being held at EIRC at Rowan Technology Center (directions) and cost $120 per person.  They have been planned to meet the needs of our teachers.
