• We have a total of 42 seats available, but they must include a balance between high school and community college instructors across the disciplines of math, chemistry and biology.


• We are very interested in having teams of teachers come as a group, so we encourage you to invite your fellow math, chemistry and biology teachers from your school or nearby schools to join you. With this as one of our goals, preference will be given to teams of at least two people.

• As part of our continued support for teachers, please expect to attend two follow-up meetings (Fall & Spring). Our goal is to allow teachers to have time to work with the Merit-style in their own classrooms and then come back for additional support. We will be discussing any questions you may have; go over any concerns, stumbling-blocks, frustrations; and provide an opportunity for you to share your own personal experience with the Merit-Style in your classroom. Financial Support for these follow-up meetings will be available.

• All participants will receive:
• A stipend of approximately $200
• Continuing Education Credit: approximately 15 contact hours towards CPDUs or CEUs
• Lodging at the Illini Union located directly on the campus quad
• Breakfast, lunch and snacks
