STEAM Education Centre offers a variety of volunteer opportunities for people interested in working with students, as well as creating, learning and sharing ideas. Our volunteers are invited to learn advanced skills like laser cutting and 3D printing, in addition to helping in workshops and camps, the makerspace, at events, and more.
To begin volunteering as soon as opportunities become available, please send an email to [email protected] so that we can learn more about you and connect with you about specific volunteer needs. If you are a student looking to volunteer as part of your school placement program, visit the STEAM Leaders section of the School Programs page for more information. We accept roughly forty students throughout the year and spots fills up fast so don't delay! |
