“STEM Meets EI” Webinar Series!

Join us for a 6-part STEM Meets EI webinar series designed specifically for Early Intervention (EI) providers and home visitors working with families of young children (0–3 years). Each 1-hour session explores how Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) naturally fits into early intervention practices—supporting child development across all domains and aligning with family-centered, culturally responsive approaches.

Each session will offer practical strategies, real-life video examples, and free resources from STEMIE. Participants will walk away with tools they can use immediately to support curiosity, problem-solving, and children’s individual learning goals—right in the context of daily routines.


Who are the Presenters?

STEMIE staff members with vast early intervention experience, Pip Campbell, Hsiu-wen Yang, and Tanna Neufeld will be facilitating the learning sessions.

Who Should Attend?
EI providers, home visitors, developmental specialists, and anyone working in early intervention with infants, toddlers, and families.

Stay tuned for registration links and CEU details. We hope you’ll join STEMIE in bridging STEM and early intervention to support young children’s learning and development from the start!

Earn CEUs!
Continuing Education Units (CEUs) will be available for attendees who participate in the live session and complete the post-webinar requirements. (More details to come.)
