Hands-on and Virtual Education

Attention Teachers!

WIM California Chapter offers a variety of educational opportunities for students, teachers, and the community with a focus on STEAM-based activities. Often, WIM members blend academics and exploration of jobs through learning activities hosted on-site at operations that include an interactive tour of a mine or a related operation.

Request a hands-on or virtual classroom activity presented by members of WIM California Chapter. All supplies and training materials are provided. Request a classroom event and learn more about mining and careers in mining.
