Regional Education Opportunities

Join the MILL Cooperative

“Where teachers tinker, test, and team up.”

This summer, the Mid-Valley STEM-CTE Hub is piloting our new MILL Cooperative program. Becoming a Co-Op member will give you access to a fully stocked makerspace, networking, mentorship, and skill-building opportunities. The space offers an opportunity for collaboration on projects and curriculum design, the development of open-source teaching materials, and community building.

The MILL is stocked with laser cutters, sewing and embroidery machines, 3D printers, woodworking equipment, screenprinting, a podcast studio, and much more!

Programming is projected to begin in the summer or fall terms. Learn more about the MILL Co-Op on our website.

To The Moon and Beyond!

We’re excited to announce that the Mid-Valley STEM-CTE Hub is joining the Oregon Space Grant Consortium, connecting our region to a NASA-aligned network advancing STEM education, research, and workforce pathways across Oregon. This partnership expands opportunities for Linn and Benton county educators and students to engage in innovative, real-world, career-connected STEM experiences.
