Whether you’re a STEM teacher, vocational educator, or just eager to bring more project-based learning into your classroom, Inventionland Education’s professional learning programs equip you with the practical skills, resources, and inspiration you need to succeed.

Hands-On Workshops That Make an Impact

Inventionland’s professional learning workshops go far beyond the average manual. These aren’t your typical “sit-and-get” sessions. They are hands-on, high-energy experiences that model the very same maker mindset you’ll bring back to your students. Each session is packed with practical classroom applications and led by trainers who have worked directly with educators across the country.

Topics include:

• 3D Printing – Avoid Common Pitfalls and Gain Real-World Experience.
• Laser Cutting & Vinyl Cutting – Learn setup, safety, and student-ready projects.
• Electronics, Raspberry Pi & Arduino – Explore coding, circuits, and maker tech.
• Stop-Motion Animation – Use simple tools to tell compelling visual stories.
• Prototyping with Cardboard or Blue Foam – Low-cost, high-impact creativity.
• Silicone Molding, Video Production, and Logo/Package Design – Bring STEAM to life with industry-aligned skills.

Educators leave these sessions not just inspired but prepared.

The 3-Day Maker Technology Training

For a deeper dive, the 3-Day Maker Technology Training is an immersive program tailored to your school’s equipment. Each day covers a different machine, from 3D printers to laser cutters and more, with ample time for educators to build, test, and troubleshoot hands-on.

This personalized training ensures teachers:

• Master the equipment they already have.
• Learn safe and effective instructional methods for students.
• Walk away with ready-to-use classroom projects.

As one teacher put it: “By the end, we now have the proper knowledge to adequately train the students we have now and in the future.”

Day of STEM Innovation

Seeking a one-day event to spark your curiosity? The Day of STEM Innovation is the perfect solution. Tailored by grade level, this engaging experience shows educators how to infuse fun, hands-on STEM challenges into any classroom.

Ideal for team-building or as a kick-off to a STEM initiative, the day introduces creative project-based learning strategies that make science, technology, engineering, and math more approachable and enjoyable for all students.
