The Teacher Leadership Center offers workshops, seminars and institutes for educators of all types and in all content areas.

Through these programs, participants learn from content specialists, museum staff and each other. Professional Development Points are often available. Longer programs provide educators the opportunity to immerse themselves thoroughly in a subject area and sometimes involve travel to experience a culture first-hand.

Customized Workshops on East Asia
East Asian staff offers in-service workshops at Boston Children’s Museum or at your location. The content can be designed to meet your curriculum or professional development needs. Choices include aspects of Chinese and Japanese culture, with a presentation of educational resources. Each workshop provides hands-on, ready-to-use lessons, and plentiful handouts.
PDP credits are available with the completion of one or a combination of suggested projects.
