The US Patent Office has an internship for STEM teachers from July 16th – 21st 2023 where they will educate you on making, inventing, and intellectual property (IP) creation and protection. The best part is they will pay for flights and lodging for anyone that is at least 50 miles from St. Louis, Missouri.
The program doesn’t include any stipend for teachers, but will provide you with a credential for 50 hours of PD.
If you are interested in a free PD experience this summer, check out the site!
