Credit Toward Workshop Expenses

Quality science teaching has been the cornerstone of SCI since the founding of the company. To support this effort, five percent of the amount your school pays for either program's copyrighted materials over the most recent three-year period will be credited toward the tuition costs for teachers attending SCI-approved national or regional workshops.
