Taking advantage of The Eighth Floor’s On-site Training Program is as easy as selecting the topics you would like to have presented at your site and providing the requested hardware and software. We do the rest!
The Eighth Floor On-site Training Sessions are intended to serve the professional development needs of schools throughout the consortium. While staff members are always invited to attend the workshops held in our facility, this is not always possible due to time constraints. For districts or schools needing on-site training, The Eighth Floor offers a low-cost solution to filling professional development needs.
Pricing: $30 per Training Hour (includes instructor and all curriculum)
The Eighth Floor recommends at least one month notice to prepare for on-site training and confirmation of on-site training is dependent on current calendar schedule. However, we encourage members to call and see if schedules are available.
Schools are also invited to “partner up” and share costs with other consortium member schools or districts in collaboration for guest speakers or special offerings. The Eighth Floor will be happy to facilitate this process and help locate facilities or arrange special events and promotions.
How to request on-site training:
To request an on-site training session, please contact The Eighth Floor immediately once training dates are available. On-site training is dependent on The Eighth Floor’s current calendar schedule. 918-828-5341
The facilities on The Eighth Floor are available for rental by consortium member institutions for free. Interested persons should contact their advisory committee representative so they may schedule a reservation.
Providing educators with professional development opportunities focusing on practical technology integration is our forte. We are here to meet member needs and enhance learning for all.
