*****************************************************************************

We use University students as well as retired individuals for our school
programs.  We always have some staff that are with them so they are not
teaching a program on their own.  We provide a training session for them
as well as lesson plans for the program.  The programs where we need
volunteers are our station-based programs.  It is here that an adult
volunteer may lead a station and must know the content of that station
as well as the activity.  

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Are there are any institutions who have adult volunteers deliver science
programs in local schools?  If so, please provide a brief description of
training provided, evaluation, and what kind of programs they present or
lead.

Thanks!
