Learn How to Qualify for a Teacher Training Workshop Grant

To aid high school teachers in keeping abreast of the technology of today's society, the Fluid Power Educational Foundation and MAC Foundation jointly sponsor Teacher Training Workshops. These Workshops provide teachers with meaningful ways to integrate math, science and technology through the study of pneumatics.
Grants are available to assist you in bringing Teacher Workshops to your area.

Download a Complimentary Fluid Power Curriculum to Implement in your School

Several curriculum levels (Basic, Advanced, and Electro-Pneumatic) are available for implementation in your school, and are designed to be used in conjunction with pneumatic trainers capable of demonstrating the
principles and circuits outlined in the curriculum. The FPEF website provides links to the manufacturers that have produced and made available a trainer capable of being used with the curriculum. This combination provides a
comprehensive and hands-on introduction to Pneumatics and Fluid Power capabilities.
