MREPBC Teacher Field Trips
Every year MREPBC works with many groups and individuals to support special professional development field trips for teachers. The topics range from local geology to mining operations to building stones! And these field trips are run in different communities across the province.**If you would like to arrange a field trip for teachers in your area, contact the MREPBC Program Coordinator, .
