Industry 4.0 Teacher Academy Session
Catalyst Connection is partnering with Beaver Valley Intermediate Unit (BVIU) and The Consortium for Public Education to host a 1-day general Industry 4.0 Teacher Academy session. This session is open to educators and administrators from Southwestern PA to learn about manufacturing careers and industry 4.0 technologies.
