STEM EcosySTEM PD Needs Survey 2022

Hello! The Idaho STEM EcosySTEM Educator Preparation, Training, and Support working group created this survey to get a better understanding of professional development (or PD) needs for formal and informal educators in our state. We will share the results broadly to improve PD experiences for everyone. It should take around 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time and for all that you do for Idaho's learners.
