Upcoming outreach training workshops for scientists

Let's Talk Science in partnership with the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) will be running Science with Impact^®   workshops for the sixth consecutive year!  

The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) has provided funding to offer a unique training workshop called Science with Impact^® at selected universities across Canada.  This workshop, developed and presented by Let’s Talk Science, provides scientists, engineers, and technology professionals with effective strategies to plan and conduct science and technology outreach with youth in a variety of settings.

The workshop is offered free of charge and appeals to those who are just getting started with outreach activities, or if you already have some experience and are interested in enhancing your presentations.
